It was a side effect of some non-free software I did install manually in the past. I uninstalled the same just after a few seconds. Probably I will have to format my entire system to be safe. Interestingly, once I do a manual 'find -L ...', sudo fsck /dev/sda<tab><tab> works just normal. All those symlinks are gone.
This bug report may be closed. I shall re-open if it exists after a fresh install (someday). Thanks.
