Relative symlinks

[verysofttoiletpaper]

Is there anyway of making filebot create symlnks with relative paths instead of absolute?

I'm requesting this because when accessing symlinks which are shared (via nfs, afp, etc) the only way to make them work is f they are relative.

Thanks

If not, I guess I could run this utility after filebot http://linux.die.net/man/8/symlinks

With r1698 I'm gonna create symlinks with relative link targets if possible, or absolute link targets otherwise for cross-volume links.

Glad to see Filebot improving

How to force use of absolute?

EDIT: Actually this wouldn't work for the issue I am facing. I kinda need to have a custom location this points to. Reason is that the location in my Docker container is different from what the FTP client will see since I am using NFS mounts to bind mount into the container where downloaded files are shared but FTPing directly to the NFS hosts to retrieve the files. This all worked well with hardlinks, but now I want to save downloaded files directly to a mergerfs share and it is giving the dreaded EXDEV (Invalid cross-device link) error.

You'll probably have to rewrite the relative links yourself.
