Hi, This broken symlink is not a bug. The symlink will only be relevant to users that use ruby-psych library in combination with jruby. jruby explicitly depends on ruby-psych and libpsych-java. Most ruby users in Debian currently rely on MRI (ruby2.3 and/or ruby2.5), so the Java extension psych.jar is of no use to them. > > From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): > > 0m27.6s ERROR: FAIL: Broken symlinks: > /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/psych.jar -> ../../../share/java/psych.jar > > Is ruby-psych missing a dependency on libpsych-java? It's not a dependency, it's only a suggestion. That's why there is a Suggests on libpsych-java instead of a hard dependency. I'll close this bug later unless there is another concern I'm not noticing right now, but as I said the broken symlink should not be a problem.
