-update-alternatives: use 'ln -n'
-
-Using the '-n' option (--no-dereference) is a better way to solve the
-do-not-link-into-directory issue.  Using only 'ln -sf' can cause problems
-on SELinux enabled hosts when target is inaccessible; e.g. when preparing
-an offline rootsystem:
-
- | $ cd <offline root>
- | $ ln -sf /lib/systemd/systemd sbin/init     # alternative #1
- | $ ln -sf /bin/busybox sbin/init             # alternative #2
- | ln: accessing `sbin/init': Permission denied
- | 
- |  --> strace:
- | brk(0)                                  = 0x102b000
- | stat("sbin/init", 0x7fffaa91c900)       = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
- | ...
- | exit_group(1)                           = ?
-
-Now with '-n':
-
- | $ ln -snf /bin/busybox sbin/init
- | lstat("sbin/init", {st_mode=S_IFLNK|0777, st_size=20, ...}) = 0
- | lstat("sbin/init", {st_mode=S_IFLNK|0777, st_size=20, ...}) = 0
- | stat("/bin/busybox", 0x7fff8c1a3bd0)    = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
- | symlink("/bin/busybox", "sbin/init")    = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
- | unlink("sbin/init")                     = 0
- | symlink("/bin/busybox", "sbin/init")    = 0
-
-
-The '-n' flag is well supported (coreutils have it at least since
-1999, busybox at least since 0.60.3 (2002)) and it obsoletes the
-explicit check whether target is a directory.
