Lintian tag: compressed-symlink-with-wrong-ext

Type: error

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The package installs a symbolic link pointing to a compressed file, but
the symbolic link does not use the same file extension than the referenced
file. In most cases, this can produce troubles when the user or a program
tries to access the file through the link.

Please refer to Symbolic links (Section 10.5) in the Debian Policy Manual
for details.
