The first problem is that I'm not an official Debian maintainer, and thu=
s I cannot upload anything in the debian official tree.
( And I won't become an debian maintainer soon, since I have not found a=
n advocate to start the New Maintainer Process).
The second problem is that gnustep-links installs symlinks wich are not =
LSB-compliant and thus not Debian Policy compliant.This is the main prob=
lem with gnustep-links

Same problems with gnustep-move.

Maybe a post in gnustep-devel could help us to find a solution...
