in one of my jobs I create a symbolic links:

directory/bin -> .
directory/share -> .

this is what happens then (from jenkins-log):

Shouldnt it simply ignore symlinks on its search???
older versions worked (i never saw that problem yet)

skipping symbolic link /srv/jenkins/jobs/create-release/workspace/ARCH/i386/PLATFORM/linux/label/ma/build/s25rttr/s25rttr/s25rttr/s25rttr/s25rttr/share/bin/bin/share/share/share/bin/bin/bin/bin – too many levels of symbolic links.
