Package: tetex-bin
Version: 2.0.2-7
Severity: normal

i first noticed this from my cron.daily:
/etc/cron.daily/man-db:
mandb: warning: /usr/share/man/man1/odvips.1.gz is a dangling symlink
then:
sativa[~/public_html/yh/api]13:27:02$ ls -l `locate odvips.1.gz`
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2004-02-07 10:41 /usr/share/man/man1/odvips.1.gz -> dvips.1.gz
which seems normal, but....
sativa[~/public_html/yh/api]13:27:26$ ls -l `locate dvips.1.gz`
- -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6422 2003-03-07 09:33 /usr/share/man/man1/man1/dvips.1.gz
i have no idea how dvips got moved from /usr/share/man/man1 to
/usr/share/man/man1/man1. dpkg -L says it should be in the former, so
i'm guessing it might have something to do with a maint script?
