I can confirm this.
These symlinks are created by the postinst script of ebtables but are
not properly removed by the pre/postrm one.
The prerm script is doing the following:
if [ "$1" = "remove" ] ; then
iptables_version=$(dpkg-query -W -f='${Version;3}\n' iptables)
if [[ "$iptables_version" < 1.8 ]]; then
LIST="/sbin/ebtables /sbin/ebtables-save /sbin/ebtables-restore"
for i in $LIST ; do
if [ -L "$i" ] ; then
rm $i
fi
done
fi
fi
First remark, shouldn't dpkg --compare-versions be used instead of
just the < sign?
Then, these symlinks must also be created/removed in the iptables
package itself for this to work, this is not the case ATM. Otherwise,
if ebtables is removed and then iptables package is removed, the
symlinks will stay on the filesystem forever.
An other solution is to remove this version check and just remove
unconditionally these symlinks in /sbin as they are not created by any
other packages (including iptables)
