libalpm/add.c : safety check for fixing FS#9235.
Fixes FS#9235. We already had the following case in extract_single_file : /* cases 1,2,3: couldn't stat an existing file, skip all backup checks */ But we actually only did a lstat here. And if lstat worked, we did a stat without checking. When lstat works and stat fails, it means we have a broken symlink, like in FS#9235. We can actually treat this case like a non-existing file. The broken symlink will then be simply overwritten. Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com>
