Package: dailystrips
Version: 1.0.28-7
Severity: wishlist
Hey!
Some of the cartoons in my list get updated so infrequently, that I
get "too many levels of symbolic links" from the browser or an image
viewer when I try to view the latest image.
dailystrips saves diskspace by creating symlinks to the cartoon for
the previous day, if the strip wasn't updated. That's pretty smart,
however it leads to the above error.
dailystrips could instead go through the additional trouble of finding
the last regular file in the directory and link to that one directly.
--nostale or --nosymlinks don't provide exactly the same functionality.
