Hi,
I've seen than many programs workaround the fact that musl lacks
canonicalize_file_name(3) (which is a glibc extension). Would you
consider adding it to musl? It relies on a glibc extension to
realpath(3), although it could be implemented in terms of a standard
realpath(3) (by looping), or even as a completely separate function.
We need it in a project, and will probably have to write our own version
(unless we workaround it in a different way), since we can't rely on
glibc. Maybe you're interested in picking that code when we have it or
write your own?
Thanks,
Alex
