Title:
Broken rust-gdbgui symlink
Status in rust-defaults package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
There is a typo in one of the symlinks in d/rust-gdb.links. It should be
rust-gdbgui, but it's written as rust-gdbui instead.
This makes the rust-gdbgui distributed by rust-defaults unusable. The
versioned rust-gdbgui must be used instead.
