Title:
Nautilus does not properly navigate symbolic links
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Test case:
1. Create a directory in Home called Folder
2. Right click on Folder in Nautilus and select 'make link'
3. Drag created link to Desktop
4. Double-click on Link to Folder to open it in Nautilus
Clicking the back arrow in Nautilus behaves as it should--it takes you
back to Desktop, not the parent folder of the target of the link.
However, the architecture displayed near the top of the Nautilus
window shows the parent directory of the target, not of the link
(i.e., it shows [Home][Folder], not [Home][Desktop][Link to Folder]
Pressing alt+up also takes you to the parent of the target, not the
link.
Is this a purposeful change? Nautilus did not behave this way in
12.04, and the old way seems to me more convenient and less confusing.
Ubuntu 13.04 64 bit
