[Bug 1184720] Re: Nautilus does not properly navigate symbolic links
Trusty is still affected. This is a *very* annoying bug, could it be fixed in 14.04, please? If the fix is not available soon, some users (including myself) may be forced to install another file manager. (c.f. discussion of gnome bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=702301) N.B. some people beleive this is a medium or low priority issue. However, in setups like the ones mentioned on gnome bugzilla, this bug makes nautilus essentially unusable for many tasks. And it's not merely about navigating back or navigating up. The real problem comes when you open a file *after* navigating the symlink. The application that is lauched will get the dereferenced path, and may calculate its own references from there. I frequenly use LibreOffice documents with several embedded linked files. If the document is fired from the wrong (i.e. dereferenced) location, then all internal references will be screwed, or at least the document will contain different references (some with the unreferenced symlink path, some with the dereferenced path). This is very annoying when you want to move your document to another location, hunting down broken links is a nightmare. The same goes for any application like video or music editing, where a project file contains links to resource or material files. You will have total confusion, two different types of references will be stored in your project. Some applications then behave differently with the references that are along the project path from those that seemingly are external to the project path. Please DO revert this to the earlier, (expected linux standard) symlink behavior in 14.04, as soon as possible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1184720 Title: Nautilus does not properly navigate symbolic links To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/1184720/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I would absolutely second the sentiment expressed in comment #11 - this behaviour of Nautilus ultimately causes issues with the use of other applications, and shouldn't be considered low priority. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1184720 Title: Nautilus does not properly navigate symbolic links To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/1184720/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

The bug is now fixed in upstream nautilus (or to be more specific, the patch which caused the bug was reverted): https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=702301#c13 It would be very good when the fix could be pulled into the Ubuntu version(s) of Nautilus.

For me this seems that gnome devs don't really care (as usual). I guess if we want this bug to be solved in ubuntu, we have to do it ourselves...
