Hi, Dropbox does follow symlink. I have a symlink inside the Dropbox folder to my Music folder. However, on the other machines, I needed first to synchronise Dropbox, then to quit it, move the Music folder to the appropriate place and then create the symlink.
But as Yuri said, I would not do that to GTG esp. if you could have to sync-computers running at he same time. What probably would better work is to add a new back-end "local file" that you store on UbuntuOne/Dropbox/yourliking. So the back-end can try to synchronise between this external task list and is internal one. This seems more sensible to me, and that is probably the developer intention. But as Yuri said "This is for the developers to answer", so take care. -- Jean-Christophe 2010/9/30 Yuri Schaeffer <[email protected]> > Luis, > > > I installed GTG at work and added some tasks and some labels. > > From within the Dropbox folder typed: > > ln -s ~/.local/share/gtg my_gtg_data > > I suspect Dropbox does not follow symbolic links, which seems sensible. > Try to create a hardlink (omit the -s). > > However: > I don't know the GTG internals but I expect things will get ugly when > you run GTG on multiple machines simultaneously while having them synced > with Dropbox.
