Rename output file to other package

I have a label //foo_base:bar, which produces a foo_base/bar_0_8_9.tar. Now I need to have this also as foo_concrete/bar.tar (in package //foo_concrete).

This should be possible by writing some action that does copy of the file. But this seems excessive. Is there a more elegant solution?

You can use a genrule to create a symlink:

genrule(
    name = "make_bar_tar",
    srcs = ["//foo_base:bar"],
    outs = ["bar.tar"],
    cmd = "ln -s $(location //foo_base:bar) $@")
