rpmlint spits symlink-should-be-relative warnings when it sees an

packager thinks an absolute symlink is appropriate and I'm not sure
whether it's really an issue.

That's why rpmlint issues only a warning. IMO, it doesn't matter that much one way or the other as long as it still "just works".

Mono installs binaries in /usr/lib/<package>/bin with symlinks back to
/usr/bin. rpmlint is not happy with this and generates an error (which
is the correct behaviour).

An error?  I thought rpmlint only issues a warning for this?
