[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#850635: dangling symlinks in usr/share/man/man8

[Michael Stapelberg]

Package: febootstrap
Version: 5.1.17-4
Severity: normal

febootstrap currently ships the following symlinks:

$ dpkg -c febootstrap_5.1.17-4_all.deb | grep 'usr/share/man'
/usr/share/man/man8/febootstrap-supermin-helper.8.gz -> supermin-helper.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/febootstrap.8.gz -> supermin.8.gz

…but the target files do not exist in Debian:

$ apt-file search supermin.8.gz
$

For supermin.8.gz, the section seems to be the problem, as supermin.1.gz
does exist:

$ apt-file search supermin.1.gz
supermin: /usr/share/man/man1/supermin.1.gz

This does not apply to supermin-helper.8.gz, which just does not seem to
exist at all:

$ apt-file search supermin-helper
febootstrap: /usr/bin/febootstrap-supermin-helper
febootstrap: /usr/share/man/man8/febootstrap-supermin-helper.8.gz
$
