Package: recode
Version: 3.6-12
Severity: normal

  using recode on a symlink breaks the symlink and replace it with the
recoded file of the same name. Which is not the awaited behaviour.

  I suppose recode creates a new file and then rename it, it sould
resolve potential symlinks before doing that, or work somehow in place
(which is not possible when converting from any 8bit charset to utf-8
e.g.)
