Icingacli ignores symlinks

Icinga Web

I install icingaweb2 from the sources and unpack it with version information to /usr/share/
For example /usr/share/icingaweb2-2.7.3
To test an update I then create a symlink to /usr/share/icingaweb2

If I now activate modules with icingacli, the symlinks do not point to /usr/share/icingaweb2/modules/ but to /usr/share/icingaweb2-2.7.3/modules

In case of an up- or downgrade these links are still active and point to possibly wrong versions.

# icingacli --version

Hello my darkest Lord,

did my Lord now you can configure an aditional directory to use as module directory?

My Lord will find this setting in Configuration -> Application -> General tab.
Maybe this solves the problems of the Lord.

Your slave,
Carsten
