# Simple test which should cover all test cases implemented in (generate-rootfs.sh):
#
# Test case #1:       normal chained / cascaded symlinks in the case of software versioning
# Expected Result:    do nothing, everything is fine here!
#
# Test case #2:       absolute symlinks
# Expected result:    change absolute symlinks into relative ones
#
# Test case #3:       detect dangling symlinks as in the case of messed up library versioning
# Expected result:    detect and delete all symlinks which are involved
#
# Test case #4:       recursive mess of absolute symlinks
# Expected result:    resolve all symlinks, at least after second run!

#     -v    verbose
#     -r    recursive
