Justification: causes non-serious data loss
Apt-get upgrade just moments ago removed my /usr/local/ symlink and
replaced it with a hierarchy of empty directories. The contents of
the proper /usr/local/ on another disk seem to be intact.
The contents of the new /usr/local/ after the upgrade:
~$ find /usr/local/
/usr/local/
/usr/local/lib
/usr/local/lib/python2.3
/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages

This bug report refers to problems upgrading from a stable woody system
to an almost complete sarge, while Sarge was still testing or in some
cases, an even earlier transition. Since sarge has been released for
several months now, I think this report no longer applies, and am
closing it. Many of these issues were fixed, the rest most likely do not
matter. If you feel this bug was closed prematurely, please reopen the bug.
Thank You,
Benjamin Seidenberg
