Public bug reported:
When upgrading base-files and have fsvs installed I get this error
message in loop:
find: Symbolic link

has the same device number and inode as a direcdpkg: error processing
base-files (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script killed by signal (Interrupt)
Errors were encountered while processing:
base-files
Its hard to cancel that message you have to hit Ctrl+C several times.
For workaround you can move that /etc/fsvs temporarly out but I dont see any
sense in the symlink checking via find.
I would suggest using `find -P ...` in package scripts.
