SID: xlibs or dpkg broken.



Hi Folks,

the following problem occured when updating xlibs (4.1.0-6).
I used www.de.debian.org and www.uk.debian.org as mirrors.

Here's the output:

Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Setting up xlibs (4.1.0-6) ...

ERROR: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults symbolic link does not
exist.  Either
the package didn't ship the symbolic link (a bug in the package), or dpkg
failed to unpack it to the filesystem (a bug in dpkg).
Please report the package name, version, and the text of the above error
message(s) to <debian-x@lists.debian.org>.

The following link fixed the problem:

ln -s /etc/X11/app-defaults /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults
