This is the dpkg bug where it fails to replace a directory with a
symlink.  For some reason that requires workarounds in every other
package instead of being fixed in dpkg.

This instance was introduced by:

commit 70af1a4e805ba7f355fb69b3a041b3fdb9b977dd
Author: Ben Hutchings <b...@decadent.org.uk>
Date:   Tue Oct 1 22:27:29 2019 +0100

    Require metapackage dependencies to be the same version, and link doc dirs
