Bug in xbase-clients_4.1.0-16woody3_ia64.deb
Hi,
during the latest apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade I got the following
Messages, which I should report to that mail-adress:
[...]

ERROR: /etc/X11/xkb/compiled 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>.
I believe, that will not cause many problems here, we use that machine
usually remote and a local X-Server is not often used, but it seems,
that there is an bug in an debian-Package (at least in the
ia64-Version). If you need more information - just send me a mail).
Bye, Wolfgang
