Packages with symlinks and CVS

[Julian Gilbey <J.D.Gilbey@qmw.ac.uk>]

I have a package which I am trying to Debianise.  The upstream source
contains lots of symlinks.  I usually use the CVS suite to do my
packaging, but by default, CVS does not handle symlinks.  I am loathe
to set the PreservePermissions config file flag, as that will be far
more wide-reaching than I want.

Does anyone have any suggestions of how this can be handled gracefully?
