[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#496396: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

Hi,

unfortunately I completely missed this bug because I had a "relaxing from
DebConf" vacation and it must somehow vanished from my mailbox - so sorry
for caring so late.

Now I had a look at Arb packaging and have to admit I do not really
understand which issue exactly fullfills the symlink attack problem.
Could you please be a little bit more specific (provide the output of
the script for arb) to enable us to fix this problem quickly?

Kind regards and thanks for your QA work

           Andreas.
