css - What is the right way to use relative paths in less stylesheets in Rails? -

i'm upgrading rails3.1 application use asset pipeline. i'm using less-rails gem compile assets (before using asset pipeline, more plugin used).

a few of existing less stylesheets reference other stylesheets in @import directive relative paths. there problem arises, since lookup via relative paths doesn't work.

example:

first stylesheet: app/assets/stylesheets/shared/env.less second stylesheet: app/assets/stylesheets/shared/colours.less 

the first stylesheet referencing other one:

@import "colours.less"; 

this fails. start working when modify reference using asset helpers:

@import asset_path("colours.less") 

is way make relative paths work? mean changing lot of stylesheets references... or problem in setup of less-rails , should work?

edit:

even using asset helpers doesn't work me. way working using paths starting in assets root, this:

@import "shared/colours.less"; 

after more research found ok use relative paths hence should work. found open issue less-rails gem:

hopefully can solve in short time.
