Comment 18 for bug 1337898

I guess there is only one case where the current "fix" would help. If someone had some library providing libungif in a different place, the broken symlinks in /usr/lib might take precedence, thus hiding the correct files.

In my opinion, removing the dangling symlinks is a slight improvement on the current situation and the risk of breaking something is very low. On the hand, I do not know whethere there are other considerations regarding a SRU in addition to the potential for regressions (which is low in this case).
