I just ran into something like this recently. I sshfs mounted remote directory /home/remote-user locally on /home/local-user/mnt


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,
