[OPEN-ILS-DEV] problems with sym link for client

[Sharp, Chris]

In PINES, we keep a symlink in the /openils/var/web/xul directory named "current" that always points to the current version of the staff client.  This way you just symlink 1.2.3.0 -> current, rather than having to change all the links every time you upgrade. 

Hope that helps!
