[Bug 1024386] Re: libc6-dev amd64 has broken links

[Adam Conrad]

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu$/libnss_db.so -> /lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/libnss_db.so.2

This is fixed in the versions of eglibc in precise-proposed and quantal-
proposed, which should migrate to updates once all the bug fixes are
validated.

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu$/libsoftokn3.so -> /libsoftokn3.so

This file, however, doesn't come from eglibc at all.  libsoftokn3.so
comes from libnss3 (or firefox or other mozilla products), however, no
package in the archive ships this broken symlink.  Perhaps you had a
locally messy firefox installation that caused this?

** Changed in: eglibc (Ubuntu)

Title:
  libc6-dev amd64 has broken links

Status in “eglibc” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm getting some broken symbolic links in the libc6-dev package:

  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu$/libnss_db.so -> /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnss_db.so.2
  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu$/libsoftokn3.so -> /libsoftokn3.so

  I tried reinstalling via apt-get, but the broken links persist.  This
  is causing some build problems for me because of the libnss_db link.
