Oh, hey, indeed.  Right, I didn't realize the implication of what you were
saying.

So... what if dpkg-gensymbols implicitly marked all weak symbols as
optional and didn't care if they disappeared?  Would that make sense to
do?  pkgkde-gensymbols could also mark all weak symbols as optional
automatically in the interim.
