Subject: ply-utils: Use lstat instead of stat for ply_file_exists
X-Git-Tag: 24.004.60~15^2~2
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e989867f4871bba564cd5dcc0de64da8ead36058;p=thirdparty%2Fplymouth.git

ply-utils: Use lstat instead of stat for ply_file_exists

If a file is a symlink, we usually want to follow it, so
testing the symlink itself, is less than optimal.

This commit switches to lstat instead of stat.
