Package: vim-common
Version: 1:6.4-001+2
Severity: normal
Hello,
after todays Sid upgrade the vim installation broke. The new symlinks in /usr/bin to the "alternatives" links were just missing. I think it comes from some
internal breakage in update-alternatives, I have seen it doing strange things before. Using update-alternatives now does not recreate the symlinks either.
I propose a check on vim-common.postinst to work around that.
Eduard.
