Broken symlinks in ed, pwget and perl?

Broken symlinks in ed, pwget and perl?

[Balaji Venkataraman]

I see some broken symlinks in /usr in my install - AFAIK, in the
latest versions of these packages. Since I couldn't find any related
report, thought I'd report it. Not sure if the maintainers are already
aware of these. Noticed I have ed because of texlive-collection-basic.

$ find /usr -xtype l -exec ls -l {} \;
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user Users 84 Jun  4  2012
/usr/share/doc/pwget/examples/emacs-vars.conf ->
/home/jaalto/cygwin/my/pwget/pwget-2012.
0202+git3b9d015/doc/examples/emacs-vars.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user Users 79 Jun  4  2012
/usr/share/doc/pwget/examples/emacs.conf ->
/home/jaalto/cygwin/my/pwget/pwget-2012.0202+
git3b9d015/doc/examples/emacs.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user Users 4 May  8  2012 /usr/share/man/man1/red.1 -> ed.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user Users 26 Jul 17  2012
/usr/lib/perl5/5.14/i686-cygwin-threads-64int/CORE/cygperl5_14_2.dll
-> /usr/bin/cygperl5
_14_2.dll

Regards,
Balaji

Thanks, I am aware of this one. It's harmless.
