Subject: generate-sym-test: skip everything that is not a file
X-Git-Tag: v257.11~21
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a8b1feaf6a53ee27155a2e1eb63c5ae74ebe2667;p=thirdparty%2Fsystemd.git

generate-sym-test: skip everything that is not a file

The generator looks for files in the filesystem, and it sometimes fails
on emacs "lock files" which are a symlink. Ignore those.
