Good question.  Debian policy seems to say that relative symlinks
should be used, but I am certain I have seen lots of these being
absolute.  I run my fixlinks script frequently, so I don't know which
Debina packages are affected and why.

It might be just another of those things Debian does wrong and which
will never be fixed ;)

Thanks,
