Package: speech-dispatcher
Version: speech-dispatcher/stable,now 0.10.2-2+deb11u2 amd64
Owner: Winston Gate <wg...@okbiz.net>

While running backups of freebsd system with rsync I noticed the compat/ubuntu
and recursive directories and traced this to a symlink toi /run/
speech-dispatcher which contains a symlink .speech-dispatcher to itself. This
of course causes a recursive loop and apparently rsync just doesn't copy the
symlink but follows and seems like there isn't a flag to prevent this unless
its on another tree. scp -r by default also follows the link.

Advise removal of the .speech-dispatcher link or converting it to a directory
and adjusting packages accordingly.
