[Pkg-zsh-devel] Bug#510038: zsh: glob qualifier - doesn't work correctly on dangling symlinks

[Vincent Lefevre]

Control: found -1 5.8-4

Still occurs.

zira% ls -l
total 0
-rw-r--r-- 1 vinc17 vinc17 0 2020-04-11 15:55:11 file1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 vinc17 vinc17 5 2020-04-11 15:55:11 file2 -> file1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 vinc17 vinc17 5 2020-04-11 15:55:11 file3 -> file0
zira% echo file*(-W)
file3
zira% echo file0(W)
zsh: no matches found: file0(W)
zira% 

This shows an obvious inconsistency.
