Erelative-symlink

The tag is present in Lintian version 2.104.244. That is the most recent version we know about.

Symbolic links between different top-level directories should be absolute.

If you use debhelper, running dh_link after creating the package structure will fix this problem for you.

Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 10.5 for details.
