we really should hardlink not symlink the iso. we should never use symlinks in a compose, we can not be sure how mirrors mirror, they may use a filesystem that does not support symlinks, the also may exclude parts of the compose causeing dangling symlinks, alternatively they may not have follow symlinks turned on in their apache configs.
Fix in PR #188. It is configured with buildinstall_symlink = False.
buildinstall_symlink = False
Guys ... you seriously need to talk to us first ... not all things needs to be configurable I see no longer a valid reason to have symlinks .... this was done due having iso files on a separate filesystem and symlinked to the compose. This feature was probably only in old distill and we don't have it (or use it) any more ... if there is still some code remaining ... it should be removed.
Please remove the symlink behavior and use only hardlinks instead. This is a perfectly valid usecase.
