I've seen this pop up a lot recently:

 * One or more symlinks to directories have been preserved in order to
 * ensure that files installed via these symlinks remain accessible. This
 * indicates that the mentioned symlink(s) may be obsolete remnants of an
 * old install, and it may be appropriate to replace a given symlink with
 * the directory that it points to.
 *
 *      /var/run
 *

This might just be me being dense, but this doesn't seem very
actionable to me. Who should replace the given symlink with the
directory that it points to, the user or the package maintainer? And
where should it be replaced? In ebuild code?

Cheers,

Dirkjan
