Bug Description

In directory:
    /usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/C/figures

the files:
    mainwindow.png
and
    codecscontainers.jpg

are symbolic links with targets as follows:
    ../../C/figures/mainwindow.png
    ../../C/figures/codecscontainers.jpg

In short, they point to themselves. Furthermore, the symlinks in all the other locale-coded directories also point to these, specifically:

/usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/sl/figures/mainwindow.png -> ../../C/figures/mainwindow.png
/usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/sl/figures/codecscontainers.jpg  -> ../../C/figures/codecscontainers.jpg
/usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/es/figures/mainwindow.png -> ../../C/figures/mainwindow.png
/usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/es/figures/codecscontainers.jpg  -> ../../C/figures/codecscontainers.jpg
/usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/fr/figures/mainwindow.png -> ../../C/figures/mainwindow.png
/usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/fr/figures/codecscontainers.jpg  -> ../../C/figures/codecscontainers.jpg
/usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/de/figures/mainwindow.png -> ../../C/figures/mainwindow.png
/usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/de/figures/codecscontainers.jpg  -> ../../C/figures/codecscontainers.jpg
/usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/uk/figures/mainwindow.png -> ../../C/figures/mainwindow.png
/usr/share/gnome/help/pitivi/uk/figures/codecscontainers.jpg  -> ../../C/figures/codecscontainers.jpg
