Is this okay? 3 packages, A, B, and C. B depends on A. C depends on B. B has a symlink to a directory in A. C has a symlink to the same directory in A, rather than a symlink to the symlink in B which points to the directory in A. Lintian complains about this: E: xslibg: usr-doc-symlink-without-dependency xlib6g Is it okay to do this with a transitive dependency? I don't see why not; it reduces the number of symlinks that must be traversed to get to the final destination. -- G.
