SORRY. THE COMPLETE TEXT:

1. Disable: Tools > Options > Load/Save > General > Save URLs relative to file
system.

2. It is assumed you have a template in Templates dir.

3. Create a document based on this template. Save it to Desktop. In my case,
the locations looks as following:

```
C:\Program Files\LibreOffice
%AppData%\LibreOffice\4\user\template\template.ott
C:\Users\John\Desktop\test.odt
```

4. Make changes in the template.

5. Move test.odt to another drive (I have two logical drives: C and D. Most of
my non-system files are on D). Open it. There will be no prompt to update the
styles. This is bad.

* * *

Most of the time we use "Save URLs relative to file system" option for linked
images, which are typically located in the "images" directory "near" the
document itself. This is convenient.

However, it shouldn't affect the linked template because such behavior makes
zero sense for real work. At least, for most real-life use-cases.
