Elektra  0.8.15
Relative

Issue

There is a different behaviour of various plugins whether their name is absolute or relative, including: 1.) mounting the same file somewhere else does not work 2.) importing somewhere else (other than from where it was exported) does not work (See here)

Constraints

Assumptions

Considered Alternatives

Decision

Key names shall be relative to parent Key name

Argument

Provides a better import/export/remount and also a more uniform experience between different plugins.

Implications

Plugins must be adapted to be relative as tracked here.

plugins should use relative paths so that import/export/remount works
