lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 2006-08-11 19:40 libglade -> /usr/share/gtk-doc/html/libglade/

I removed the directory manually, afterwards installed and removed the package. This time without any warning at all.

I guess that the link is a leftover from an older version of the package. So the warning might occur when upgrading from Sarge to Etch.
