The symlink will never be dangling as long as ksh has been properly installed.
It was due to ksh.1.gz being provided via update-alternatives mechanism.

Do you still consider it a bug? If you find it acceptable, I assume we should
close this bug report.

Bug#850637: dangling symlink: /usr/share/man/man1/rksh.1.gz

2017-01-08 Thread Michael Stapelberg
Package: ksh
Version: 93u+20120801-2
Severity: normal

ksh currently ships the following files:

$ dpkg -c ksh_93u+20120801-2_amd64.deb | grep usr/share/man
/usr/share/man/fr/man1/shcomp.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/ksh93.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/shcomp.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/rksh93.1.gz -> ksh93.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/rksh.1.gz -> ksh.1.gz

…but ksh.1.gz does not exist in Debian:

$ apt-file search /usr/share/man/man1/ksh.1.gz
$

Presumably, the link should point to ksh93.1.gz instead.
