Body
when i give ls -l /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-yes-bitmaps.conf lrwxrwxrwx <snip> /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-yes-bitmaps.conf -> ../conf.avail/70-yes-bitmaps.conf so for a symbolic link or soft link, how to find the target file's full(absolute path) in python, If i use os.readlink('/etc/fonts/conf.d/70-yes-bitmaps.conf') it outputs ../conf.avail/70-yes-bitmaps.conf but i need the absolute path not the relative path, so my desired output must be, /etc/fonts/conf.avail/70-yes-bitmaps.conf how to replace the .. with the actual full path of the parent directory of the symbolic link or soft link file.
