Subject: manpages-dev: Self-referencing symlink /usr/share/man/man2/epoll_pwait.2.gz

Date: Tue, 22 May 2007 08:41:12 -0600

Package: manpages-dev
Version: 2.49-1
Severity: normal

/usr/share/man/man2/epoll_pwait.2.gz is a self-referencing symlink:

$ ls -l /usr/share/man/man2/epoll_pwait.2.gz
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2007-05-22 08:33 /usr/share/man/man2/epoll_pwait.2.gz -> epoll_pwait.2.gz

$ realpath /usr/share/man/man2/epoll_pwait.2.gz
/usr/share/man/man2/epoll_pwait.2.gz: Too many levels of symbolic links

I believe that epoll_pwait.2.gz is suppose to be a symlink to epoll_wait.2.gz

This didn't work. You probably forgot to Cc to control.
