Bug ID: 504159
Summary: dolphin: does not work correctly if home directory is
a symlink (regression from kde5)
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 25.04.1
Platform: FreeBSD Ports
OS: FreeBSD
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: view-engine: icons mode
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: qxldd...@aon.at
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Scenario:
- FreeBSD stable/14
- latest ports
- $HOME is /users/martin
- /users/martin is a symlink to the actual home directory
Result:
- If, in dolphin's settings, the default location is set to "/users/martin", an
error message pops up: "The location for the home folder is invalid or does not
exist, it will not be applied."
- Entering the real home dir is o.k., but this is different from $HOME.
Expected result:
- Just as with kde5, having a symlink as $HOME should be working.
Note:
- There is another issue in that dolphin does not show thumbnails anymore (and
yes I know how to turn them on and off, and configure the file types for which
they should be shown). Could the underlying cause also be this misbehavior when
$HOME is a symlink? Maybe this is the same as bug 503799.
