Description Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-04-06 00:34:47 UTC 
media-gfx/xloadimage creates invalid symlinks. After emerging it they are symlinks to .gz man pages, but man pages are .bz2.

After unmerging it, if media-gfx/xli isn't installed, they are 4 left dead symlinks (2 symlinks to man pages and /usr/bin/{xsetbg,xview} to xloadimage).
