Ah, I get it now, ekg2-core ships some of the files in /usr/share/doc/ekg2, rather than .../ekg2-core, and ekg2 contains /usr/share/doc/ekg2 that is a symlink. It's a pity lintian did not complain about this. -- Marcin Owsiany <[email protected]> http://marcin.owsiany.pl/ GnuPG: 2048R/02F946FC 35E9 1344 9F77 5F43 13DD 6423 DBF4 80C6 02F9 46FC -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
