Perroquet file should contains relative paths

[murlockoldaccount]

After creating a new exercise and creating the perroquet file, the result file contains hardlink path, even in case all files are in same directory.
It can be difficult to spread Perroquet exercises

It's will be more complicated.

Wido create a Archlinux package installing an exercice in /opt/... In this case, the perroquet file should leave absolute path. When a create an exercices, my videos are un ~/Vidéos but the perroquet in ~/perroquet. If i move my perroquet file, i will not move my vidéos file.

In fact, the perroquet file may should contain both relative and absolute path.

I would like to know what exactly is in this /opt/ folder. Are the media resources and the perroquet file all in /opt/ (whatever a folder contains parts or all the exercise), or are the files on /opt/ and on /home/user/ at the same time ?

If this is the first case, we should be able to use relative paths only since the user gives the absolute path when opening an exercice. I don't have tried yet the new feature for exercises downloading, but I don't think a file is opened without any absolute path given by the developer (who exactly knows where this kind of exercise) or the user (the only one able to know everytime where any exercice is).

When I will go back on Archlinux i will try this AUR package, however into the AUR page's description there is a tar.gz file not working anymore...

When i write that, perroquet template files wasn't exists. The AUR package contains only the media and subtitles files.

With perroquet 1.1, both relative and absolute path are accepted. Exercise repository use relative path :

/home/fred/.local/share/perroquet/repo_root/main/blender/elephant-dream_1.0

<sub_exercise>
   <paths>
    <video>
     Elephants_Dream.ogg
    </video>
    <exercise>
     english.srt
    </exercise>
    <translation>
     french.srt
