I try to load a simple base.html.twig template file that was moved from symfony's default location app/Resources/views/ to the custom location theme/.
The template file contains:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
...
</head>
<body>
{% block body %}{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>
Extending the above template file by the controller Acme\Core\CoreBundle\Controller by using the controller-specific template
{% extends '::base.html.twig' %}
{% block body %}
Hello world!
{% endblock %}
leads to an error saying Unable to find template "::base.html.twig" in "AcmeCoreCoreBundle:Default:index.html.twig"..
How is it possible to tell symfony where to find the template files in global space?
Thanks in advance.

There's a native feature to do exactly what you want in a nice way. Escentially you can add a twig namespace to the twig configuration in app/config.yml like this:
twig:
# ...
paths:
"%kernel.root_dir%/../vendor/acme/foo-bar/templates": foo_bar
This creates an alias to the folder vendor/acme/foo-bar/templates and then you can use it to render your templates either from the controllers:
return $this->render(
'@foo_bar/template.html.twig',
$data
);
or from other twig templates
{% include '@foo_bar/template.html.twig' %}
