Bug Description

There is appearing warning when link has relative path - which is incorrect because relative path is correct (and than it is going to recover it using absolute path). One of the big problems are going to happened when in chroot.

warning examples:
update-alternatives: warning: /etc/alternatives/lupdate has been changed (manually or by a script); switching to manual updates only
update-alternatives: warning: forcing reinstallation of alternative ../../usr/bin/lupdate-qt4 because link group lupdate is broken
update-alternatives: warning: current alternative ../../usr/bin/lupdate-qt4 is unknown, switching to /usr/bin/lupdate-qt4 for link group lupdate
update-alternatives: warning: /etc/alternatives/lrelease has been changed (manually or by a script); switching to manual updates only
update-alternatives: warning: forcing reinstallation of alternative ../../usr/bin/lrelease-qt4 because link group lrelease is broken
update-alternatives: warning: current alternative ../../usr/bin/lrelease-qt4 is unknown, switching to /usr/bin/lrelease-qt4 for link group lrelease
update-alternatives: warning: /etc/alternatives/qmake has been changed (manually or by a script); switching to manual updates only
update-alternatives: warning: forcing reinstallation of alternative ../../usr/bin/qmake-qt4 because link group qmake is broken
