pkgutils root as relative path bug
There's a bug in pkgutils that doubles up the root path if the value given is relative. This was my initial fix, http://git.die.net.au/cgit/crux/tools/pkgutils/diff/?h=multiarch&id=ac8fb16e60a96b5c0fa5ca998646aa4e3319532a This prevents the doubling up, but breaks symlinks. I'll have a look at it later this afternoon, but I thought I'd throw it at the list so other people can work on it if they want. I suppose a better solution would be to resolve relative paths into absolute ones. -- Lucas Hazel <lucas@die.net.au>

After fighting with strange g++ compiler errors, not letting me redefine the root attribute. A fix is available http://git.die.net.au/cgit/crux/tools/pkgutils/log/?h=multiarch -- Lucas Hazel <lucas@die.net.au>
