lengthy-symlink
This link goes up, and then back down into the same subdirectory. Making it shorter will improve its chances of finding the right file if the user's system has lots of symlinked directories.
If you use debhelper, running dh_link after creating the package structure will fix this problem for you.
For more information please consult:
- Symbolic links (Section 10.5) in the Debian Policy Manual
