Soft links are copied as soft links and it is true that Gnome version don't display them different. KDE version on the other hand display them italic. I agree that Gnome version should display them italic too. Even more, if the link is broken it should display it different too.
-- Soft links in snapshots should not be browseable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/447841 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Back In Time Team, which is subscribed to Back In Time. Status in Back In Time: Confirmed Bug description: When browsing soft links in snapshots they take you to the current directories/files without notice unless they're relative and completely contained in the snapshot. They should have a specific display and browsing them should be disabled since they might take you outside the snapshot. Even when they would work as expected it would be best showing them as non-browseable soft links. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~bit-team Post to : bit-team@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~bit-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
