Each time I rebuild squid the link /etc/squid/errors gets overwritten, because the src_install() section contains the following: > #simply switch this symlink to choose the desired language.. > dosym /usr/lib/squid/errors/English /etc/squid/errors Since this simlink is not managed by etc-update (as I understand it can't), I usually forget to switch it back. Instead of resetting this symlink, it should be checked, and left if OK.

this is not the same thing as bug 148597.
I will try to find a solution to this issue.
Fixed in 2.6.4-r2. This version will remove /etc/squid/errors symlink from your system. You will still be able to select a different error directory than the default (/usr/share/squid/errors/English) through error_directory configuration directive.
