Thanks a lot!
The double symlinks exist, since I often have collections of files living in several subdirectories. This is useful for my scientific paper collection which is one big pile, but I also copy some git-annex symlink to several topical subdiretories. Since its just a symlink this does not take up space. The big advantage is to be able to get the contents of specific topics I'm working on, and dropping them if I don't need them.
I use the same structure for data files that I only use occasionally. (I know about tags, but this is much more convenient.)
As for the error, it's difficult to debug for me. Possibly its the one you found (symlink to non-existing content). Can I go back to the V7 state of the repository by checking out an older git version? If not, I might try on some harddrives that I haven't synced yet since the version 7->8 upgrade.

Try creating a fresh env with git-annex (conda create -c conda-forge -n datalad-env git-annex) then pip-installing datalad into that.

Did it work?
I wonder why you got the standalone (nodep) git-annex build in your environment -- this should only happen when package conflicts prevent the normal package from getting installed.
When you create a fresh env with git-annex, which package version do you get?
\"don't have admin privileges, so I'm using the existing conda (v4.7.5) installation\" -- with [[install/conda]] you don't need admin privileges, you can get the [installer](https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html#linux-installers) and install it in your own dir.

Ok -- until this gets automated, could you manually push the 8.20200309 standalone tarball to archive.org?
(My setup now relies on the standalone conda build, and this would let me get the recent bug fixes.)
Thanks a lot!

Should I install the version in my apt repo (6), or (7) or (8)?
Also, I'd like to know what the major difference is in the versions, I've googled this and found nothing.
(other than bug fixes and "repo format changes"), I wanted to know if the repo format change is a good reason to try to run the latest v8.
edit: I guess there is no "release notes" link for git annex? I see the content that would exist there in news: https://git-annex.branchable.com/news/

There is a changelog at [Hackage](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/git-annex-8.20200309/changelog).
v6 is very old. v8 includes speed improvements; downside is it's new so less tested by users, upside is that bugfixes are more likely to happen for it than for legacy versions, and that you avoid an eventual [[git-annex-upgrade]]. I'd probably install v8.
