I bet it's not there. I bet that this is a dandling link. Try:

  ls -l /usr/include/tonezone/tonezone.h

Just remove it:

  rm /usr/share/zaptel/tonezone.h

and re-try the install.

(An attempt to write to a link will write to its target. So are most
file operations. The only common on that will act on the symlink is
unlink - rm).


I wonder, though, how that symlink was created. I hope an advice by me
was not involved...
