Copying symlink does not work when real source is not relative to parent source

[cedk]

Since 48cbd3d including Adwaita icons does not work anymore on macOS with Homebrew.

For example in Homebrew the icon /opt/homebrew/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/bottom_side is a symlink to ../../../../Cellar/adwaita-icon-theme/46.0/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/bottom_side.
With _pre_copy_hook, it is (PosixPath('/Users/ced/tryton-7.2/tryton/build/exe.macosx-14.0-arm64-3.12/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/bottom_side'), PosixPath('../../../../Cellar/adwaita-icon-theme/46.0/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/s-resize'), False) that is stored in _symlinks. The symlink target does not exist in the build folder.

I think that if the source symlink is not included it should make a copy.

Please test with the latest development build:
pip install --force --no-cache --pre --extra-index-url https://marcelotduarte.github.io/packages/ cx_Freeze

and give me feedback.

If it does not work, you can resolve the links in the setup. For example, you can change:
https://github.com/tryton/tryton/blob/main/tryton/setup-freeze.py#L34
To use realpath or Path.resolve:
Path(sys.prefix, 'share', 'icons', 'Adwaita').resolve()
