I have a file with more than 1 layers of soft links for it. For ex.
I want to get the name of the last file (i.e. .profile_final) when I refer to .profile using shell script. I could not find any option available to get this.
Any help would be appreciated.

AA-AUTODEP(8) AppArmor AA-AUTODEP(8)NAME
aa-autodep - guess basic AppArmor profile requirements
SYNOPSIS
aa-autodep <executable> [<executable> ...]
DESCRIPTION
aa-autodep is used to generate a minimal AppArmor profile for a set of executables. This program will generate a profile for binary
executable as well as interpreted script programs. At a minimum aa-autodep will provide a base profile containing a base include directive
which includes basic profile entries needed by most programs. The profile is generated by recursively calling ldd(1) on the executables
listed on the command line.
BUGS
This program does not perform full static analysis of executables, so the profiles generated are necessarily incomplete. If you find any
bugs, please report them at <http://https://bugs.launchpad.net/apparmor/+filebug>.
SEE ALSO apparmor(7), apparmor.d(5), aa-complain(1), aa-enforce(1), aa-disable(1), aa_change_hat(2), and <http://wiki.apparmor.net>.
