I think this is fixed now, thanks.

Relative links don't work, indeed.  I don't know how we could/should fix them.
We don't actually have an `ediprolog.el` file nearby in the website.

In this particular case, I think the better option is just to remove the
link and the whole discussion of how to install it, since that's the
same as for all other packages :-)

I think it's the same problem that the relative link to `factorial.png`
fails.  The case is a bit different in the sense that I can't argue this
time that the link is redundant anyway :-)

Maybe we could try and recognize those links and redirect them to something like
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/elpa.git/plain/factorial.png?h=externals/ediprolog
but going through `cgit` is rather inefficient (and recognizing those
links reliably is not completely trivial either).
