Hi, It seems that -e overrules -f in readlink at least according to
the following. If so, when -e is specified, specification of -f does
not change the result of readlink. Is it the case?
tmpdir=$(mktemp -d)
cd "$tmpdir"
ln -s z.txt d.txt
readlink -f d.txt
readlink -f -e d.txt || echo "$?"
readlink -e d.txt || echo "$?"'

Peng
