Actually I am not sure about this. Somehow the installation process
created these two links, but it does not seem to be necessary for the
software to run. I don't know if I can put them into plist as regular
files, for I am not sure if I can safely remove them when deinstalling.
I'll look into the installation process further to see whether I can
prevent them from being created in the first place. Suggestions are
welcome.

I'll look at both problems and try to make another patch.
