Package: libarchive12
Version: 3.0.4-3+wheezy3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

After installing a recent security update for libarchive12:amd64
(3.0.4-3+wheezy3), the following message was displayed:

Preparing to replace libarchive12:amd64 3.0.4-3+wheezy2 (using
.../libarchive12_3.0.4-3+wheezy3_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libarchive12:amd64 ...
Setting up libarchive12:amd64 (3.0.4-3+wheezy3) ...
ldconfig: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libarchive.so.12 is not a symbolic link

The ldconfig message regarding libarchive.so.12 now appears any time that
ldconfig is run, e.g. by aptitude.

The problem may be related to the updated .deb containing the libarchive.so.12
file rather than a link to libarchive.so.12.0.4, as in the previous package.
Here is a debdiff for the current version and its predecessor:

=======================================
$ debdiff old/libarchive12_3.0.4-3+wheezy2_amd64.deb
new/libarchive12_3.0.4-3+wheezy3_amd64.deb
