Package: tiger
Version: 1:3.2.3-4
Severity: normal

Hi,

The issue and issue.net files are still handled differently: only
the latter has a symlink in /usr/lib/tiger/systems/Linux.

However, adding dangling symlinks into packages isn't a healty
practice; ironically, tiger itself complains about it:

NEW: --WARN-- [fsys013w] cannot access /usr/lib/tiger/systems/Linux/issue.net 
is a dangling symlink.

Why not simply look for the administator-provided files under
/etc/tiger without any symlink magic, and skip the check if neither
is provided?  This would avoid the dangling symlink(s) and also the
need for local data under /usr.  The cost is a Debian-specific patch,
until the change is accepted upstream. :)
