Package: debianutils
Version: 2.11.2
Severity: normal

Hi,

run-parts returns symbolic links pointing to directory in the --list
result:
$ run-parts --list run
run/nofile
$ ls -l run
insgesamt 0
lrwxrwxrwx  1 calvin calvin 1 2005-02-11 18:19 nofile -> .

I suggest that symlinks to directories will be ignored. Better yet,
ignore _all_ symlinks (or special files like devices etc., but I have not
tested such files). On the other hand such a change might not be backward
compatible.


Regards,
  Bastian
