Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubuntuone-client
If a parent folder is a symlink (to somewhere within HOME), then none of
the child folders within it can be added to Ubuntu One
Test case:
mkdir -p folder/subfolder
echo hello > folder/subfolder/file.txt
ln -sf folder link-to-folder
gnome-open link-to-folder
Right-click 'subfolder'
Select "Ubuntu One" -> "Synchronize This Folder"
u1sdtool --list-folders
The folder has not been added to Ubuntu One
synchdaemon.log shows:
