Bug 158936 – localepurge leaves dangling symlinks

• Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 158807
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description David Tardon 2006-12-23 11:06:00 UTC]

When cleaning man pages, app-admin/localepurge deletes only regular files. This
may result in dangling symlinks (f.e. media-video/mplayer installs mencoder.1 as symlink to mplayer.1). This trivial patch solves it.
