there are some specific file/directory paths in jbroot, which we set as symlinks to the original rootfs, because there is no reason to create a separate copy in jbroot, and this simplifies maintenance of jailbreak app/daemon/tweak, especially for bootstrap, since it uses jbroot as the default root through libvroot, this method can replace the patching of the source code of each package. (of cause under certain circumstances we can also replace it with a copy of the jailbroken version to meet our needs).
