Summary: os.path.realpath() cannot handle symlinks
Initial Comment:
To reproduce:
Create a link, say to /tmp:
bagira:~/python> ls -l xxx
lrwxrwxrwx 1 ilya ilya 4 2005-06-02
17:09 xxx -> /tmp/
And now:
bagira:~/python> python2.4
Python 2.4.1 (#2, May 5 2005, 11:32:06)
[GCC 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-12)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for
more
information.
>>> import os.path
>>> os.path.realpath("xxx")
'/home/ilya/python/xxx'
I'd expect realpath() to return "/tmp"
Note: This bug was reported earlier (e.g bug 990669)
but it was closed as fixed
