Gabor Kecskemeti created MASSEMBLY-971: ------------------------------------------
Summary: Symbolic links created by the plugin are absolute (i.e., the build environment is leaking through them) Key: MASSEMBLY-971 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-971 Project: Maven Assembly Plugin Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.4.2 Environment: ubuntu 22.04, maven 3.8.6, assembly plugin 3.4.2 Reporter: Gabor Kecskemeti 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
