Bug#315195: Symlink for x-terminal-emulator.1.gz is still dangling here
Found 315195 223-1
thanks
Somehow the symlink /usr/share/man/man1/x-terminal-emulator.1.gz is
dangling on my system:
$ ls -l /usr/share/man/man1/x-terminal-emulator.1.gz
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 42 2007-02-02 17:59 /usr/share/man/man1/x-terminal-emulator.1.gz -> /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator.1.gz
$ ls -l /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator.1.gz
ls: /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator.1.gz: No such file or directory
I don't have a clue how this comes, since the symlink really should be
there, according to update-alternatives:
$ /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --display x-terminal-emulator
x-terminal-emulator - status is manual.
link currently points to /usr/bin/lxterm
/usr/bin/konsole - priority 35
slave x-terminal-emulator.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/konsole.1.gz
/usr/bin/xterm - priority 20
slave x-terminal-emulator.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/xterm.1.gz
/usr/bin/uxterm - priority 20
slave x-terminal-emulator.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/uxterm.1.gz
/usr/bin/koi8rxterm - priority 20
slave x-terminal-emulator.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/koi8rxterm.1.gz
/usr/bin/lxterm - priority 30
slave x-terminal-emulator.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/lxterm.1.gz
Current `best' version is /usr/bin/konsole.
The dpkg log shows nothing suspicious either:
$ grep 'xterm' /var/log/dpkg.log

Any idea what went wrong?

Sven
