Package: tofrodos
Version: 1.7.8.debian.1-2
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
The 1.7.8.debian.1-2 version of tofrodos removed the unix2dos/dos2unix symlinks.
Obviously this causes breakage for people needing the tools.
The package NEWS file recommends making aliases to solve the problem,
but that does not always work.
(For example if your makefiles use 'which unix2dos' to assign variables).
Manually making the links of course works, but it's a hassle
(especially when large groups have to do it).
Would it be possible to bring the symlinks back?

Since the requested substitutes dos2unix and unix2dos have been
available for a long time now, I believe that the problem has been dealt
with. I am closing this bug report now.
