Package: realpath
Version: 1.14
Severity: normal


My system has a symlink for a BT878 TV PCI card.  'ls -l'
and 'readlink -f' show that symlink, but plain 'realpath' fails
and 'realpath -s' returns the symlink target name:

    % ls -l /dev/vbidefault
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root video 8 May 15 20:02 /dev/vbidefault -> /dev/vb1

    % readlink -f /dev/vbidefault
    /dev/vb1

    % realpath /dev/vbidefault ; echo $?
    /dev/vbidefault: No such file or directory
    1

    % realpath -s /dev/vbidefault ; echo $?
    /dev/vbidefault
    0

Changing the current directory to '/dev/' didn't affect
the output:

    % cd /dev

    % realpath -s /dev/vbidefault ; echo $?
    /dev/vbidefault
    0

    % realpath /dev/vbidefault ; echo $?
    /dev/vbidefault: No such file or directory
    1

Hope this helps...
