i attempted to add a symbolic link to a directory containing audio files (podcasts), to the directory clementine monitors for changes and i used a relative path (ln -s ../Podcast/ Podcast).
clementine shows a brief "updating library" message but nothing else happens: there are no new entries in the library when there should be a few ones.
when using an absolute path (ln -s /media/SomeHDD/Podcast Podcast), the (automatic) library update works as expected and the new entries show up.
i regard relative paths quite useful in this case, because the symlink might break if the HDD containing the library gets mounted in another location than /media/SomeHDD.
