Comment (by boklm):

 Replying to [comment:2 gk]:
 > To add another thought: this would avoid the need for renaming the
 directory in our current release flow (see e.g. the 4.5a3-build2 dir in
 Mike's build directory which should be just 4.5a3).

 Renaming the build directory on people.tpo ?

 It's also possible to keep it as "4.5a3-build2" on people.tpo, which
 allows to see which tag was used to build it.

 But if having the build number in the directory name is not so useful,
 then yes it's probably better to remove the symlink and not include the
 build number in the directory name.
