retitle 238375 xutils: [lndir] can create incorrect links because it uses stat() instead of lstat() tag 238375 + upstream thanks On Tue, Mar 16, 2004 at 09:18:49PM +0100, Marc L. de Bruin wrote: > Package: xutils > Version: 4.1.0-16woody3 > Severity: normal > Tags: patch > > (xutils seems to own lndir; why is that?) Because: 1) it's built by the xfree86 source package; 2) it doesn't merit a whole package to itself; 3) it doesn't depend on any X libraries. The current xutils package description says: Description: X Window System utility programs xutils provides a set of utility programs shipped with the X Window System that do not require the X libraries; many of these programs are useful even on a system that does not have any X clients or X servers installed.
