-From b684f4cc25821b6e86a58576f864e4b12dfdfecc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

-Subject: [PATCH] only apply search path logic to relative pathnames
-
-Adding any directory to the search path via cfg_add_searchpath breaks
-lookup of absolute paths. So change the logic in cfg_searchpath() to
-ignore the search path when the given filename is absolute, and merely
-check that for existence.
-
-This is technically an ABI change, but the current behaviour is quite
-unusual and unexpected.
-
-Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <rasmus.villemoes@prevas.dk>
-Upstream-status: Accepted (https://github.com/libconfuse/libconfuse/pull/155)
