I see the point: the real path may not be accessible from the substitute drive: - if symlink (or junction) is used, pointing to path not visible from the substitute drive. - if different security context is used (e.g. different user or UAC). But that is the discussion about the _correct_ behavior (which may have differing opinions if the exact behavior is not documented). ----- Let's discuss how we can fix the issue caused by the behavior change. I propose a simple fix: keep old behavior if a special environment variable is specified. E.g. if you specify env. var. PYTHON_NTREALPATH_OLD_BEHAVIOR=1, it doesn't resolve symlinks and junctions. Is this acceptable for Python 3.8.10? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43968> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
