Do what you will. I admittedly know absolutely nothing about package
maintainership nor of Debian. But for what it's worth: I think what you
might wish to consider instead of a symbolic link as your temporary
"fix" is script mapping -- done in the one and only Orca package Debian
maintains. See this patch [1] which I already committed to Orca master
because a different downstream pointed out upstream that marco, at least
at the moment, is pretty much still metacity but calling itself
something else. The solution is verified already by that downstream
reporter [2].
