I had a little script that would remove broken links. I used to do it
like this:
if ! stat -L $link > /dev/null; then rm $link; fi
But recently (some time in February according to the CVS records) stat
was changed so that stat -L would use lstat(2) if the link is broken.
So I had to change it to
if stat -L $link | awk '{print $3}' | grep l > /dev/null;
then rm $link; fi
but it is a lot less elegant.
What is the proper accepted way to remove broken links?
