bug#54341: 29.0.50; dired-do-flagged-delete: file already exists error

[Jean Louis]

I am deleting to Trash with x from Dired, though in Trash I have this
  file symlink:
  
  lrwxrwxrwx  1 admin admin       150 Jan 29 10:09 Certificate.pdf -> hyperscope/1/6/1/2022/01/2022-01-29/Certificate.pdf

and in ~ I have this same file:

  lrwxrwxrwx     1 admin admin       150 Jan 30 14:06 Certificate.pdf -> hyperscope/1/6/1/2022/01/2022-01-29/Certificate.pdf

This condition does not work with x as:

I'm unable to reproduce this in Emacs 29.  Do you have a recipe to
reproduce the problem, starting from "emacs -Q"?

But perhaps this has been fixed in the weeks since you've last built
Emacs.  Try updating Emacs first.

More information was requested, but no response was given within a
month, so I'm closing this bug report.  If the problem still exists,
please respond to this email and we'll reopen the bug report.
