If one uses a relative symlink in 'local-file', it will lead to a broken
symlink in the store as illustrated in the attached example. So I think
it either:
- should be documented explicitly that 'local-file' adds a specified
file to the store blindly, which may lead to the problem with a broken
symlink.
- or 'local-file' (or a deeper procedure) should take care of that case
and dereference a symlink if needed.
WDYT?
