Wojciech Muła <wojciech_m...@poczta.onet.pl> added the comment:
Confirmed in python3.2.
Lib/posixpath.py/_resolve_link: path returned by readlink
is normalized by normpath. In this case readlink('zlink')
returns 'xlink/../blink', then normpath is called, and
returns 'blink'. This ends processing because 'blink'
isn't a link.
I've attached procedure that does [IMHO] correct symlink
resolution (this is just proof-of-concept, it is slow and
doesn't deal with cyclic links).
