Dolphin follow symlink failing example
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create folder "A"
2. Create folder "B" in "A"
3. Symlink "B" one level up next to "A"
- A
- B
- B symlink
4. Open the properties dialog for the symlink and click the "show original"
button
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens
EXPECTED RESULT
A new tab/window should open showing the "B" original folder.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: EndeavourOS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.98.0
Qt Version: 5.15.6
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If your distribution has e.g. "/bin" or "/lib" symlinked in your root it is
easily reproducable on those too.
The "show original" functionality isn't completely broken, I assume the bug
appears if the symlinked folder is a child-folder in the current view.
