Some context:
You advice to
test -L symlink; then
rm -f symlink;
fi
It is really a bad piece of advice because:
- it remove custumised by admin symlink and thus is a policy violation
- it does not handle partial upgrade/failled install
- it does not handle down
The advice you give is a policy violation.
If the symlink was personnalised by the admin and point to another
location you remove this manually set symlink, that is a policy
violation and thus a serious bug in the package implementing this
solution.
Thus the severity of this bug is serious.
