This sounds like something that will need to be updated with every new releases rather than having some somehow fixed path. This was also a non-issue when Boxes was using iso-read, but is now more complicated since it chose to switch to libarchive (but not impossible). From a quick reading of libarchive page about link handling, I'm under the impression that it's writing which is hard, I'm not sure reading is that complicated, and I think reading is enough in the Fedora case. Short version: I don't think this is a great change, and this is something Boxes can/should handle, so NACK from me. Christophe
