[Bug 941362] [NEW] Broken symlink in python2.7-dev and python3.2-dev

[Andreas Moog]

Public bug reported:

Hi there,

the package python2.7-dev has broken symlinks to the libpython2.7.a
static library (it should point to python2.7/config/...):

/usr/lib/libpython2.7.a: broken symbolic link to `config/libpython2.7.a'
/usr/lib/python2.7/config/libpython2.7.a: current ar archive

and

the package python3.2-dev has broken symlinks to the libpython3.2mu.a
static library:

/usr/lib/python3.2/config-3.2mu/libpython3.2mu.a: current ar archive
/usr/lib/libpython3.2mu.a:         broken symbolic link to `config-3.2mu/libpython3.2mu.a'

Cheers,
  Andreas
