Yes, that's because it creates symlinks for all the supported python versions, so the non-default version can also be not installed, hence generating dangling symlinks. How would you resolve the problem that when installing a supported version after having installed python-numpy, those symlinks have to be there? > [10]matica:~# symlink_check -m M,L,D,R / /usr/local /var is symlink_check available in debian (I can't find it) or it's home-made? it might be nice to have it, for example in devscripts package.
