Package: dpkg Version: 1.14.5 Severity: normal
After the last upgrade action (I'm following testin), I got the following warning mail: > /etc/cron.daily/man-db: > mandb: warning: /usr/share/man/man1/appletviewer.1.gz is a dangling > symlink So I investigated the problem. It seems that the gcj appletviewer version was uninstalled. No problem, one should think, as I still have the sun version installed. But: > lunix:/home/schabi# update-alternatives --display appletviewer > appletviewer - status is auto. > link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/bin/appletviewer > /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/appletviewer - priority 63 > slave appletviewer.1.gz: > /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.00/man/man1/appletviewer.1.gz > Current `best' version is /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/appletviewer. > lunix:/home/schabi# update-alternatives --config appletviewer > There is only 1 program which provides appletviewer > (/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/appletviewer). Nothing to configure. So update-alternatives points to a non-existing version (neither the gcj appletviewer itsself, nor the manpage are present), knows the correct version, and - instead of fixing it, due to "auto" mode - does not even allow to manually correct it.
