Subject: cpio: symlink cause "No such file or directory" and don't save symlink

Package: cpio
Version: 2.6-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Before this version of cpio, cpio would backup broken sylinks (symlinks
that did not actually point to a valid file.)  Since this version it
throws the error "No such file or directory", and fails to backup the
link.  We do nightly backups and daily apt-get updates and this problem
started Monday August 8, 2005; which corresponds to the cpio update.

Follow this to see the error:

# #BEGIN
# mkdir t
# cd t
# ln -s not-here dangle-symlink
# find ./ | cpio --create > archive.cpio
cpio: ./dangle-symlink: No such file or directory
1 block
# cpio --list < archive.cpio

1 block

# #END

I marked this as "grave" because our backups no longer reflect the state
of our filesystem.   Restores would lose data.  Users expecting
full backups are not getting what they expect.
