Yes, I do agree. I'm not saying at all that u-a-l shouldn't look into
this. Just that it needs to fall back to looking into the click package
dir if there is no cached symlink.

How would that be? If there's no symlink in ~/.cache/ the startup
currently does not work at all. With a fallback to pkgdir it would work,
just a tad slower (that's why we have the cache). But again, you can't
rely that all user's ~/.cache/ directories are accessible at the time of
installing a click (that's the use case that doesn't affect current
phone so much, but convergence, so is low-prio), but the issue which
*does* affect the phone is installing a click and trying to start it in
the current session (as the upstart hook doesn't run then).
