On Ubuntu 20.04.2 - Linux 5.8.0-50-generic amd64

The "Aux file" on "Edit group" doesn't support relative sub-directories path.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open the "Edit group" window on groups interface
  2. On "Aux file" put the "latex.out/thesis.aux" (there is a "thesis.aux" on "latex.out" directory)
  3. Click on "Ok" button.
  4. The application raises an exception.

Note: If I put a full path file, it works very well.
