try_mirror_url() creates a symlink named as the original file to make everything look like files specified in SRC_URI were downloaded from their original location. The link is however created as an absolute reference, this makes DL_DIR non-relocatable. This also causes issues with the Isar project since it bind mounts DL_DIR to /downloads to perform some of its build tasks in a chrooted environment (rendering all symbolic links from DL_DIR invalid). Modify ensure_symlink() to take an optional "relative" argument and have that function use os.path.relpath() to produce a relative symlink.

Bitbake
=======
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run
efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints.
One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software
stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website:
http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated
html version at the Yocto Project website:

Please refer to
http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded
for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended
for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org)
but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send
the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current
branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
