When I took over the packages from Daniel Baumann, he already had 0.9.10
in experimental. This package had *all* the patches from 0.9.7 removed
(well, except for 01-debian-directory) and built and worked like a
charm. The only reason why it has not been uploaded to unstable was the
ABI change (well, it has been uploaded but removed some days later
because of this). The 1.0.0 packages in experimental are based on these
packages and were allways maintained with unstable in mind.

I have built the experimental package several times without this symlink
and experienced no problems. The transition of the header file locations
has been a problem around the 0.9.7 version.
