Org checks the file modification time to determine whether to
republish a file or not. Due to the nature of /sym/links their
modification date does not change if the directory entry they are
pointing to changes.
Maybe you could use hard links instead of symlinks if the files you
are linking exist on the same hard disk partition. If this is not the
case maybe using a command line tool that syncs the directories
(e.g. rsync) could be an option (Cf. Manual, 13.1.2 Sources and
destinations for files).
