Hi Martin,
This kind of error happens quite often. Upgrading works if you manually
remove the erroneous symlink. Given that, would removing all the
symlinks in a prerm script be a totally crazy idea?
for lang in $( ls /usr/share/help ); do
test "$lang" = 'C' && continue
test -d "/usr/share/help/$lang" || continue
help_dir="/usr/share/help/$lang"/ubuntu-help
for link in $( ls "$help_dir" ); do
test -h "$help_dir/$link" || continue
rm "$help_dir/$link"
done
for link in $( ls "$help_dir/figures" ); do
test -h "$help_dir/figures/$link" || continue
rm "$help_dir/figures/$link"
done
done
