| Hi Ryo,
|
| Please purge everything that is abiword related and reinstall.
| /usr/share/AbiSuite existed in woody for the last time. Some defoma

That makes sense. But, I've failed to solve the problem so far.
I found that defoma-reconfigure complained about abiword:
# /usr/sbin/defoma-reconfigure
W: abiword-common: Application not found.
/usr/sbin/defoma-reconfigure: `defoma-app update abiword-common' failed (0).
[. . .]
dpkg doesn't show any abiword related packages.
I deleted one file and one directory that I found obviously
related to abiword:
/etc/defoma/hints/xfonts-abi.hints
/var/lib/defoma/abiword-common.d/
So,
1) I purged grace6. The /usr/share/grace6/ directory is deleted.
2) I ran /usr/sbin/defoma-reconfigure . It didn't complain about
abiword. "strace -f /usr/sbin/defoma-reconfigure" doesn't even
include the string "abi" now.
3) I installed grace6, again.
This created the spurious symlink again!
$ ls -l /usr/share/grace6/fonts/type1/bchb.pfa
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Feb 12 17:42
/usr/share/grace6/fonts/type1/bchb.pfa
-> /usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts/bchb.pfa
I got stuck.
Ryo
