Follow-up Comment #5, bug #42778 (project gnustep):

Niels, this hunk (in comment #3) was completely intentional.  As it stands, if
a framework with a new interface version is installed, the Resources symlink
will be updated to point to the Current version.  This is wrong.  Different
versions may have different resources and this is 100% doomed to fail if some
of these resources are arch-dep, because an app still linking with the old
framework will attempt to load bundles that are linked against the new
framework.

I also thought it may break resource lookups, but it doesn't.  Let me
demonstrate:


$ ls -l /usr/lib/GNUstep/Frameworks/PopplerKit.framework/
общо 4
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   24 юни  5  2012 Headers ->
Versions/Current/Headers
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   33 дек  7 01:47 libPopplerKit.so ->
Versions/Current/libPopplerKit.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   27 дек  7 01:47 PopplerKit ->
Versions/Current/PopplerKit
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 май 19  2014 Versions


Notice the *absence* of the Resources symlink.  PopplerKit has fonts as
resources and this method in PopplerFontManager.m:


- (void) _addIncludedFonts
{
   int i;
   for (i = 0; IncludedFonts[i]; i++)
   {
      NSString* fontFile = [self _findIncludedFontFile: IncludedFonts[i]];
      if (fontFile)
      {
         [self addFontFile: fontFile];
         NSLog(@"added font %@", IncludedFonts[i]);
      }
      else
      {
         NSLog(@"WARNING: no font for %@", IncludedFonts[i]);
      }
   }
}


The fonts are available in the arch-indep location where the Resources symlink
under Versions/VER points to (as symlinks to the actual font files from the
gsfonts package in Debian, but this doesn't matter here):

The duplicate messages come from poppler_init in bindings/poppler.cc but the
important thing is that this symlink is not necessary for proper resource
lookups.
