This occurs when one of the dependencies, such as rest_framework, is updated and the symlinks pointing to the older version are no longer pointing to a file that exists. Users can work around this problem by deleting the broken symlinks in /var/lib/pulp/assets/.

The installer should stop using --link option when running 'collectstatic'[0] or another task needs to be added to clean up broken symlinks.
