Actually I'm not sure if your patch is correct
because despite the fact that it does not cause
a crash.
In fact,
given the fact that on suse systems:
/bin/ls
is a symlink to:
/usr/bin/ls
what happens is that:
$_ls
whose absolute path is:
/srv/fai/nfsroot/target/bin/ls
will now be a symlink to:
/srv/fai/nfsroot/usr/bin/ls
instead of:
/srv/fai/nfsroot/target/usr/bin/ls
... I hope it's clear.
So,
the correct patch should be mine:
info=$(file $(readlink -m $_ls))
because, relative to the nfsroot we have:
_ls=/target/bin/ls
_ls=$(readlink -m $_ls)
echo $_ls
/target/usr/bin/ls

yes,
both patches do work:
info=$(file -L $_ls)
info=$(file $(readlink -m $_ls))
your patch is better.

Which openSUSE version are you using?
Does file -L help?
