Hi,

Thanks for the hint, I added preinst script adapted from
libgtksourceview-doc.preinst to remove the symlink. From my quick
testing it seems to upgrade from the version in etch fine now.

Not related to this bug, but I noticed this in the changelog;
"Don't include autotools.mk as it's already included by gnome.mk",
gnome.mk doesn't actually seem to be used by glade, that's part of bug
313520.
