compass is not following symbolic links

[sroze]

I'm bootstrapping a project on which SASS stylesheets are in different sub-folders and one aggregate them using symbolic links. The problem is that when I want to compile the directory, linked directories aren't found.

My directory structure is so simple:

samuel ~ $ ls -al app/public/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x   4 samuel  staff  136 Jul 23 10:55 .
drwxr-xr-x  10 samuel  staff  340 Jul 22 18:39 ..
drwxr-xr-x   3 samuel  staff  102 Jul 22 18:34 main
lrwxr-xr-x   1 samuel  staff   25 Jul 23 10:55 travel -> ../modules/travel/public/

This is the result of compass compile call on the master directory (app/public):

samuel ~ $ compass compile --sass-dir app/public  --css-dir .tmp/public -I ./bower_components/
unchanged app/public/main/stylesheets/main.scss

As you can see, the subdirectory travel is not discovered by compass. By the way, I can compile by setting the sass-dir of this sub-directory.

samuel ~ $ compass compile --sass-dir app/public/travel/  --css-dir .tmp/public -I ./bower_components/
unchanged app/public/travel/stylesheets/layout.scss

I'm running on Mac OS X:

samuel ~ $ uname -v
Darwin Kernel Version 13.3.0: Tue Jun  3 21:27:35 PDT 2014; root:xnu-2422.110.17~1/RELEASE_X86_64

Note that the symbolic link points to a directory, not a file: this is working with files.

If you've any solution, thanks a lot in advance !

Compass now uses the Sass compiler and watcher, can you please confirm this is working as expected in 1.0.0.rc.0?
