Re: lintian: symlinks from /usr/lib into /lib
Hi,
It is not yet policy, no. But there was discussion on this
list that seemed to suggest that top level directories are prime
candidates for being mounted elsewhere, and that we should require
symbolic links between top level directories to be absolute.
Links within a top level directories should still be relative.
Tis should catch most (perhaps 90%?) of the cases out there
that would break, and shall be proposed in a policy document soon.

Silence does not make a sage if he is stupid and ignorant, but when a

discriminates in both worlds is for that reason called a sage. 268,
