what is the rationale behind preferring relative to absolute symlinks
(unless relative means in the same folder)? I would even prefer it the
other way around to avoid breakage.
depends on your definition of breakage, whether the package is
relocatable (not that we worry too much about that), whether the target
of the symlink is in *this* pkg, etc... (:
