> To recreate this:
> create a folder, then create a file in it. create a symlink to the file from the parent of the previously created folder (should be a relative link e.g., run ln -s folder/file from parent).
> create an assembly descriptor that creates a tar.gz from the parent of the above create folder and run it. 1) The produced tgz will contain a symlink which is broken. 2) the produced symlink leaks information about the build environment as instead of the original folder/file symlink we end up with the complete path of the assembled project + parent/folder/file.
