Description efhilton 2010-10-06 17:25:25 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 6.9 (Build 201007282301)
Operating System = Linux version 2.6.32-25-generic-pae running on i386
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_20
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 16.3-b01

We presently have two developers, all sharing a subversion repository (let's call them developers A and B)

Developer A creates a project, sets it as a java webstart project, sets the application icon image, splash screen image, and libraries; then commits the project to Subversion.
Developer B opens the project, makes modifications to the source code, and then tries to release the project.  The following problems occur:

1. all the paths to the images are broken, because they are relative to Developer A's filesystem.
2. all the paths to the libraries are broken, because they are again relative to Developer A's filesystem.

Is there any chance that the path can be set relative to the project?  Otherwise, this becomes a real issue with a distributed set of developers.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
