Surely not. If they are erased, it's because they are exactly the same across multiple python versions. They are then linked back in all destination directories. It's easy to add an exception for these files, but I think the appropriate thing to do is to remove them entirely. They are just a side effect of using libtool and I fail to see for what purpose they could be useful. I still consider this bug important, if not serious, as this is a FHS violation. -- .''`. : :' : We are debian.org.
