Steps to reproduce: * Open two folders in which the user doesn't have write permissions (e.g. /usr/lib/chromium-browser/ and /opt/google/chrome/). * Drag and drop some file from one of the folders above to the other. * When it asks what to do with it, select "Link here". Expected behavior: * Should ask for root password and create a link. Actual behavior: * Fails due to permissions 1769666 1 cfeck 2018-07-31 18:38:21 +0000 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 179678 ***
