Stefan Seifert commented on MASSEMBLY-971:
------------------------------------------
this seems to be a duplicate of MASSEMBLY-965
> Symbolic links created by the plugin are absolute (i.e., the build
> environment is leaking through them)

> Key: MASSEMBLY-971
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-971
> Project: Maven Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.4.2
> Environment: ubuntu 22.04, maven 3.8.6, assembly plugin 3.4.2
> Reporter: Gabor Kecskemeti
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: test971.sh

> To recreate this:
> create a folder, then create a file in it. create a symlink to the file from
> the parent of the previously created folder (should be a relative link e.g.,
> run ln -s folder/file from parent).
> create an assembly descriptor that creates a tar.gz from the parent of the
> above create folder and run it. 1) The produced tgz will contain a symlink
> which is broken. 2) the produced symlink leaks information about the build
> environment as instead of the original folder/file symlink we end up with the
> complete path of the assembled project + parent/folder/file.
