I'd like to use the nfpm symlinks feature

[rgroleau]

Although nfpm (for deb) supports the symlinks: option, I get the error:
error=yaml: unmarshal errors: field symlinks not found in type config.NFPM
whenever trying to add symlinks: statements,
most likely because it is missing from goreleaser config?

This feature is quite nice for systemd service files.
Now I will have to code a post installation script just to maintain that link...
But this seem like a rather trivial change (I think, but then again I am often wrong, so sorry in advance).
Thanks!

duplicate of #1829

[SKalt]

If possible, I'd like to reopen this issue since issue #1829 was closed with PR #1849, which includes support for packager-specific nfpm configuration options but doesn't include support for nfpm's symlink option. As of goreleaser version 0.147.1, I'm still getting

   ⨯ release failed after 0.00s error=yaml: unmarshal errors:
  line 38: field symlinks not found in type config.NFPM

Let me know if I should open a new issue.

yeah seems like symlinks weren't ported

[hellt]

can confirm that with 0.149.0 the symlink feature works
