I am getting messages like the one below from portage every now and then. |
| 2 |
Especially, about /var/run, but in this case about a different directory: |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
* Messages for package dev-libs/klibc-1.5.20: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
* One or more symlinks to directories have been preserved in order to |
| 7 |
* ensure that files installed via these symlinks remain accessible. This |
| 8 |
* indicates that the mentioned symlink(s) may be obsolete remnants of an |
| 9 |
* old install, and it may be appropriate to replace a given symlink with |
| 10 |
* the directory that it points to. |
| 11 |
* |
| 12 |
* /usr/lib/klibc/include/asm |
| 13 |
* |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Perhaps I am having a senior moment, but I am not clear what I should do |
| 16 |
despite the friendly message. This is the symlink in question: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
ls -la /usr/lib/klibc/include/asm |
| 19 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Nov 8 2008 /usr/lib/klibc/include/asm -> asm-x86 |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
How am I supposed to *replace* it with the directory that it points to? |
| 23 |
