Hi,

> File conflict between redis-server-dbgsym and redis-tools-dbgsym

This (still) affects stable but I fear the fix:

 redis (4:4.0.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Make /usr/bin/redis-server in the main redis-server package a symlink to
     /usr/bin/redis-check-rdb in the redis-tools package.

     Whilst this prevents a wasteful duplication of a binary, it moreover
     ensures there are no duplicate debug symbols which was preventing the
     simultaneous installation of the redis-server-dbgsym and
     redis-tools-dbgsym packages.

     Note that this results in the peculiar (and possibily confusing) situation
     where the main package does not have the main binary anymore, or indeed
     any binaries whatsoever. See also the previous parallel attempt at a
     symlink changes in 3.2.6-3 which was reverted in 3.2.8-3. Thanks to Adrian
     Bunk for the report. (Closes: #868551)
  
… is too invasive for a stable update. The version in stable is a
little outdated anyway, and the backport is recommended anyway…

Thoughts?


Regards,
