Hello,
I discovered a bug or undocumented behavior in normalizePath
steps to reproduce:
execute normalizePath on a folder link on windows. When you are on a
non-english windows box, you likely have links in place for windows'
default folders, e.g. "C:\Programme" linking to "C:\Program Files" on
german windows boxes.
Thus executing 'normalizePath("C:/Programme/R")' results in an "
path[1]="C:/Programme/R": Access is denied" error while
'normalizePath("C:/Program Files/R")' yields the expected result. Just
executing executing 'normalizePath("C:/Programme")' however also yields
the expected result,
Cheers
David
