``relative_symlinks``
=====================
The :ref:`ref-classes-relative_symlinks` class walks the symbolic links in the
:term:`D` directory and replaces links pointing to absolute paths to relative
paths. This is occasionally used in some recipes that create wrong symbolic
links when their :ref:`ref-classes-native` version is built, and/or would cause
breakage in the :ref:`overview-manual/concepts:shared state cache`.
For example, if the following symbolic link is found in :term:`D`::
/usr/bin/foo -> /sbin/bar
It is replaced by::
/usr/bin/foo -> ../../sbin/bar
