vscode-python: Duplicate Python environments in list, both Capitalised and lowercase

Type: Bug

Behaviour

Most/all of my Python environments are listed twice. Both in a Capitalized (~/Envs) directory and a lowercase (~/envs) directory.

The actual environments are in /Volumes/envs and ~/envs is a symlink to that volume. The filesystems are case insensitive.

I’ve also tried to rename the symlink from ~/envs to ~/Envs but that makes no difference

Expected vs. Actual

Only environments listed as ~/envs/abc

Steps to reproduce:

List environments by trying to select the interpreter
Get many duplicate results:
