> KARAF-4564 introduced a fix for "Can't start karaf using symbolic link", but this introduced a new regression: Following that change, the ./karaf startup command now only works when invoked from current directoy, no longer via absolute path.  For example:
> {noformat}git clone git://git.apache.org/karaf.git
> cd karaf
> git checkout karaf-3.0.x
> cd tooling/karaf-maven-plugin
> mvn clean install
> cd ../..
> mvn clean install -DskipTests
> cd assemblies/apache-karaf/target/assembly/bin/
> chmod +x karaf
> ./karaf
> cd ../../../../..
> ./assemblies/apache-karaf/target/assembly/bin/karaf
> Error: Could not find or load main class org.apache.karaf.main.Main
> {noformat}
> Of course we could further fiddle with the startup script to solve this somehow, but it occurred to me that perhaps somewhere on Apache there is a ready made script for this already? Like maybe looking at e.g. how the Maven / Ant & other such tools (Gradle?) would be valuable.
> Perhaps some sort of non-regression integration test for both start-up scenarios, from current as well as via abs. path, would be of value?
