Re: FreeDiams: RPATH problem solved, upstream install target disturbs symlinks
Hi Eric,
if you think it it is an upstream (MedinTux?) problem I would report
this to upstream because it is IMHO clearly a bug which should be fixed.
Giving this kind of hints to upstream is an important part of the work
as a maintainer of a Debian package. It makes software better and
finally it saves your own time once it is fixed.

I will try to have a look. Creating a patch using quilt is cheap, but
I would try to conserve / restore the symlinks.
Question: If you say it is an "upstream" problem, do you want me to say
that FreeDiams includes copies of code from MedinTux? If I understood
this corretly we should keep this in mind in case we try to package
MedinTux which is definitely an interesting thing to do (I wished
somebody would take the time to do this). In this case we should
clearly split both projects.
Kind regards
Andreas.
