Debian Questions

[John G. Heim]

Huh... Are you sure it replaces the link on upgrade? Because I have removed 
that link on plenty of systems and I think I've run 'apt-get dist-upgrade' 
about a bzillion times but I don't think it ever replaced the link. But 
obviously, by the number of "I thinks" in this message, I'm not sure.

It seems to me that that would kind of be a bug. It would be akin to over 
writing a config file you modified.
