Custom module's css images not working in 4.2

In Splunk 4.2, custom modules' css background images are not loaded correctly. Here's an example from the Google Maps app. Module "GoogleMaps" contains this css line.

.cluster-icon.m-1 {
background: url("img/m1.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
.......
}

On Splunk 4.2 the marker image is not displayed. On Splnuk 4.1.7 it works perfectly. Firefox' firebug is not able to display the images, either, while the css loads fine in both cases.

Do you have any idea?

It seems like Splunk 4.2 custom module css' urls are relative to the

"appserver/modules/" 

directory rather than the

"appserver/modules/MODULENAME/" 

directory (as it was on 4.1). So in the previous example, adding the module name to the url solves the problem:

.cluster-icon.m-1 {
    background: url(GoogleMaps/img/m1.png) no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
    .......
}

.
