Bug Description

As of version 4.1.2-2, gij-4.1 no longer ships gcj-wrapper, but the gij defaults package still contains symlinks for it and its manpage.

Yes. I was getting the daily emails from Anacron about the dangling symlink. I manually cleaned it up on 8/1/2007. The Anacron emails stopped. But then they returned afresh on 8/7/2007.

Still happening for me in Gutsy.

Personally I think sending error messages to the user every day is more than low severity. (But I suppose anacron messages are discarded by default in ubuntu, unless the user installs an MTA?)

well, I didn't see that, but apparently you don't mean "gcj-wrapper", but "gij-wrapper" ...
