As a last ressort I guess that would be ok, although you may contact Juraj who maintains
the current CSWgwhois and see why there are no module dependencies and either recompile
gwhois on Solaris 9 or probably rebuild CSWgnulinks with just this symlink *if* CSWgwhois
is functional. If it is broken and cannot be rebuild it should probably removed and gnulinks
dropped.


Best regards
