[issue1052827] filelist.findall should not fail on dangling symlinks

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower  added the comment:

Distutils is now deprecated (see PEP 632) and all tagged issues are being 
closed. From now until removal, only release blocking issues will be considered 
for distutils.

If this issue does not relate to distutils, please remove the component and 
reopen it. If you believe it still requires a fix, most likely the issue should 
be re-reported at https://github.com/pypa/setuptools

[issue1052827] filelist.findall should not fail on dangling symlinks

[Senko Rasic]

Senko Rasic added the comment:

Here are two patches:

* test against py3k test_sdist.py (should crash without a fix)
* a proposed fix

The proposed fix not only changes lstat, but also changes other relevant paths 
to actually include dangling symlinks in the filelists. I've split them into 
two in case the proposed fix is rejected but test is still useful.

Thanks for the report. The steps you described need to be turned into a unit 
test. Can someone provide a patch against py3k’s test_sdist.py?
