Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

Expected behavior: symlinks handles paths such as /..

Actual behavior: symlinks crashes with SIGSEGV.

Steps to reproduce:

ln -s /.. mylink
symlinks .
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Discussion: The parent directory of the root directory is just the root directory. However, symlinks does not handle this case properly, leading to a segmentation fault.

A minimal script to reproduce the crash is attached.
