Hello once again,

The nano package has a circular symlink (/bin/nano -> /bin/nano) on my
hardy-based Nexenta. I tried uninstalling the package and reinstalling it,
but the problem still remained.

To my guess, this is caused by the postinst/preinst script since the
dpkg-deb -c <package> output is reasonable:

drwxr-xr-x root/root         0 2008-06-16 14:18:09 ./
drwxr-xr-x root/root         0 2008-06-16 14:18:08 ./bin/
-rwxr-xr-x root/root    145564 2008-06-16 14:18:08 ./bin/nano

The nano package does some "update-alternatives" stuff in its installation
which is almost 100% certainly causing this.

Per Lundberg
