Relocation works by recognizing paths in the loaders cache which start with the built time prefix and extract the relative path from that. This leads to the following problem when updating the cache: In case the package is build on another machine one has to either match the build directory layout or adjust the cache by hand for the resulting cache to stay relocatable. This commonly occurs with msys2 where mostly pre-build packages are used which are built on another machine and the cache gets generated at install time. Another case is updating the cache in a separate deployment environment. This patch takes the package installation directory as a base and writes relative paths into the cache when relocation is enabled. When loading the cache a relative path is made absolute by prepending the package base again. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=776081
