The pathlib module is "*New in version 3.4"*. There's an implementation for
previous versions of Python in PyPi.

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pathlib

The pathlib module is not overkill, as it provides the same functionality
as os.path, but in a more OO and syntactically simpler form:

(configpath / filepath).resolve()
