Re: [Python-Dev] os.normpath may change the meaning of the path if it contains symbolic links?

[jepler]

Consider:
    $ mkdir -p d/d/d
    $ echo 1 > d/d/a
    $ echo 2 > a
    $ ln -s d/d/d x
    $ python -c 'import os; print open(os.path.normpath("x/../a")).read(),'
    2
    $ cat x/../a
    1
