Hi list,
I'm new to this list but have had a hard time convincing redhat people that
broken symlinks are bad! (I'm not going to bother trying to convice you ;-)
What I would like to do is get a "package" to take responsibility for the many
broken symlinks out there. So that at least a broken symlink can be assigned to
a specific package the owner of which thinks (sic) that the symlink is
"required" from his/her perspective. (I won't say that the code should be
more
intelligent & create a symlink if it is really necessary & remove it when
it's
broken as that would expect too much)
Please see,
https://access.redhat.com/support/cases/#/case/01326479
The BZ
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1185918 will be
probably better reference. Not everybody has access to RH's customer portal.
Vít
for more detail.
Generally many packages create symlinks, but don't "own them", I'd like
to
change that. eg. kernel packagages if the source is not installed.
Try, find / -type l -exec file "{}" \; |grep broken
Cheers
johnd
