When in dolphin (in my home directory) I select files and folders to compress using the service menu, a perfect compressed package is created with all the files and folders selected in. The same occurs if I use ark directly. I have many symlinks to folders in my home directory. The problem occurs when I try to create compressed packages containing files and folders that are in those symlinked folders. It creates a package with all folders starting at ~/ and finishing in the directory where the package was created. It doesn't save the contents I selected, only saves the folders and some files... sometimes it creates an empty package. If I go directly to the folder pointed by the symlink it works as expected. 884787 1 39242 vortex 2009-12-22 16:05:18 +0000 Created attachment 39242 broken archive created by ark Broken archive that was created by adding files from a symlinked directory. 884788 2 vortex 2009-12-22 16:05:39 +0000 This is indeed an annoying problem: My home directory is located at "/home/ich". However, "/home/ich" is actually a symlink to a directory on another drive. This hasn't caused any problems so far, except when compressing archives with ark. I have attached an example archive. To create this, I right-clicked the file "test.txt" in my home folder in dolphin and selected "Compress -> as ZIP archive". Look at the funny result it produced. However, if I navigate to the "real" home directory without using the symlink the result is correct. 888519 3 rakuco 2009-12-29 04:11:40 +0000 This is actually bug 191821; marking as a duplicate. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 191821 *** 39242 2009-12-22 16:05:18 +0000 2009-12-22 16:05:18 +0000 broken archive created by ark test.txt.zip application/zip 230 vortex UEsDBAoAAAAAAFV/lju7PyqoFgAAABYAAAAdABwALi4vLi4vLi4vLi4vaG9tZS9pY2gvdGVzdC50 eHRVVAkAA6HeMEuj3jBLdXgLAAEE9AEAAARkAAAAVGhpcyBpcyBqdXN0IGEgdGVzdC4gClBLAQIe AwoAAAAAAFV/lju7PyqoFgAAABYAAAAdABgAAAAAAAEAAACkgQAAAAAuLi8uLi8uLi8uLi9ob21l L2ljaC90ZXN0LnR4dFVUBQADod4wS3V4CwABBPQBAAAEZAAAAFBLBQYAAAAAAQABAGMAAABtAAAA AAA=
