> Should the symlinks be relative, or is rpmlint being too pedantic here?

rpmlint's check here was decided by the FPC (and just ratified by FESCo) to be
a bit too strict.

I'm going to write this up today, but you can look at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Symlinks , which says:

"There are two ways of making a symlink, either as a relative link or an
absolute link. In Fedora, neither method is required. Packagers should use
their best judgement when deciding which method of symlink creation is
appropriate."
