Please note that this is actually the wrong fix.

As I noted in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=926698#19,
cpio doesn't ship or create the /bin/rmt symlink (since 2.4.2-39 in 2001), so
it shouldn't remove it either.

The code removing the symlink should just be removed from the prerm.

Thanks,

Ivo
