Public bug reported:

Since Wily nsscache executable (from package nsscache) has been moved
from "/usr/sbin/nsscache" to "/usr/bin/nsscache". The change has
resulted that package nsscache now ships also with broken symlink in old
location "/usr/sbin/nsscache" that points to
"../share/nsscache/nsscache" but directory "/usr/share/nsscache/" is
missing.


root@wily:~# dpkg -S /usr/sbin/nsscache
nsscache: /usr/sbin/nsscache
root@wily:~# ls -l /usr/sbin/nsscache 
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 May 30  2015 /usr/sbin/nsscache -> 
../share/nsscache/nsscache
root@wily:~# ls -ld /usr/share/nsscache 
ls: cannot access /usr/share/nsscache: No such file or directory

root@xenial:~# dpkg -S /usr/sbin/nsscache
nsscache: /usr/sbin/nsscache
root@xenial:~# ls -l /usr/sbin/nsscache
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Jan 17 11:08 /usr/sbin/nsscache -> 
../share/nsscache/nsscache
root@xenial:~# ls -ld /usr/share/nsscache
ls: cannot access '/usr/share/nsscache': No such file or directory


Answers to questions:

1)
Ubuntu releases: 15.10, 16.04 (development branch)

2)
wily package version: 0.30-4
xenial nsscache version: 0.32-1

3)
I expect that the broken symlink /usr/sbin/nsscache does not exist or points to 
valid location /usr/bin/nsscache

4)
nsscache package ships with broken link
