I just ran into something like this recently. I sshfs mounted remote

A symlink in the remote directory pointing at /usr/lib/my-app appeared
broken. I assumed this was a result of the symlink pointing outside of
the shared path.
As I only temporarily needed to access it, my quick and dirty fix was to
copy the remote small directory /usr/lib/my-app into /home/remote-user/
my-app then I could easily access those files over sshfs. After I was
finished, I deleted /home/remote-user/my-app
This isn't viable for me, I use sshfs to mount the root filesystem of a
device for backup purpose, I cannot deal with copying a directory from
/etc to other directory.
Kind regards,
