• Bug#266638: svk: symbolic links don't work

    From Bruce Stephens@1:229/2 to All on Wed Aug 18 17:00:18 2004

    Package: svk
    Version: 0.18-1
    Severity: normal

    If I try to commit a directory including a symbolic link (i.e., I add
    a link and then commit), I get the error:

    The stat preceding -l _ wasn't an lstat at /usr/share/perl5/SVK/XD.pm line 825.

    I'm not sure whether symbolic links are supposed to work fully yet (or
    even what "work" means, exactly), but the error suggests a bug.
