Bug ID: 442786
Summary: Search doesn't work in symlinked directories when
Baloo is enabled
Product: frameworks-baloo
Version: 5.85.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: baloo-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: sonichedgehog_hyperblas...@yahoo.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When Baloo is active, searching symlinked directories in Dolphin always returns
no results. You can only search inside the original directory at its real path,
never through a symlink as well.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Create a directory ~/foo. Control + Shift + Left-Click drag it to create a
symlink as ~/bar. Place any file inside ~/foo.
OBSERVED RESULT
Go inside ~/foo and use Control + F to open the search bar and do a search,
this should work normally and give you results. Now go in ~/bar (its symlink)
and do the same, you will be told no results could be found.
EXPECTED RESULT
The search system should be aware of symlinks and show search results as if
you're looking at the directory through its original path.
