I totally agree with you!  I ended up putting the symlink onto Quantian too
(as I don't want to punish my users, and only after I discussed at length
with the JGR developer how their package needed a fix to cope with the
missing symlink :).  

With the symlink you get to move on yet we get some more bugreports about
things to fix.

All cool.
