It's possible. Which is the strucure on other builds?

What happens in debian is that the links are created relative to the
path of the tmp installation. So if I make the packages in
/foo/openca-09 then the links are installed, at the first step, on
/foo/openca-09/debian/openca-{node}/usr/share/openca/htdocs/ca/
pointing to
/foo/openca-09/debian/openca-{node}/usr/share/openca/stylesheets/
This will breaks when I remove the sources, since when the package is
installed the links will still point to
/foo/openca-09/debian/openca-{node}/usr/share/openca/stylesheets/
Maybe there is a solution to fix this, but I need to understand the
structure of the rpm builds too.
