[bug-idutils] can you build ID using relative path

[xcai]

Hi,

It seems to me that mkid builds the ID database useing the full path of a file, 
not the relative path. For example, if the file is at 
\\host1/home/kcai/sample.c, and function test() is defined/used in this c file 
(I did the "mkid *.c" under /home/kcai), then I can only use gid at host1. If 
somehow I am in host2 and also have the acess to /home/kcai/, but the path is 
now /host1/home/kcai, then I can't do a "gid test". It reports that 
/home/kcai/sample.c can't be found.

If the path is relative, I can always cd to /home/kcai or /host1/home/kcai 
first and do the gid there.

Is this a known issue? If yes, do we have a solution?

Thanks.
