[Bug 2139037] [NEW] rust-coreutils breaks softlink handling in emacs dired mode

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Using Ubuntu 25.10, all current, Emacs no longer has working support for
softlinks in dired mode. Poking around on-line suggests that an external
`ls` is used, and indeed by doing (a quick hacked)


```sh
edd at paul:/tmp$ cd /usr/bin/
edd at paul:/usr/bin$ sudo mv ls ls.rs
edd at paul:/usr/bin$ sudo ln gnuls ls
```

functionality was restored. Feel free to reassign to the emacs packages
if you think that is more appropriate.
