That is correct. I'm not quite sure anymore why I put that in (I wrote that code 4 years ago...). Possibly, that's not actually required , but I can't guarantee that there aren't any configs that rely on this behavior.

Yup, simply comment out (put a "#" at the beginning of the line) line 541 in buildpacket.pl But as I said, I don't know if that would break something - if you test it with the packages in CVS and nothing bad happens, I'll gladly commit the change to CVS. > Also I observed that the symbolic links are created relatively, e.g. > > luna > ls -l usr/lib/cups > lrwxrwxrwx 1 mega users 28 2007-10-25 13:36 usr/lib/cups -> > ../../data/cups/usr/lib/cups > > even if I prepend the target with a slash, which is not a problem within > LEAF, but may not be the desired behaviour. No, that's "working as designed". If you want absolute links, comment out lines 546 to 549 in buildpacket.pl (but again, I don't know if that will break something).
