What about a slight variation:
for each (symlinkname in the package) do
if (symlinkname should point to /opt) and (symlinkname is a directory) then
cp -a symlinkname/* to /opt/maemo/symlinkname/
rm -rf symlinkname
ln -s /opt/maemo/symlinkname symlinkname
endif
endfor
This would migrate the existing files and would establish a symlink
structure that matches what is in the package.
(What a hack.)
