The package libc6-dev in precise installs a dangling symlink.
$ ll /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_db.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Okt 5 22:40 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_db.so -> /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_db.so.2
$ ll /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_db.so.2
ls: cannot access /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_db.so.2: No such file or directory
$ dpkg -S /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_db.so
libc6-dev: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnss_db.so |
[Impact / Justification]
While probably mostly cosmetic (how often to people link directly to NSS modules anyway?), shipping a -dev symlink to a non-existent library is poor form, at best, and could potentially break or confuse some esoteric build system at worst.
[Test Case]
debdiff the old and new libc6-dev to note that the offending symlink is no longer shipped.
[Regression Potential]
Very low. Just removing a single symlink to nowhere.
[Original Report]
