Description Daniel Hahler 2011-01-05 01:30:46 UTC

Version:           0.11.2 (using KDE 4.5.85) 
OS:                Linux

It seems like Okular uses the current filename when storing bookmarks, not the resolved symlink (where the symlink points at / the real file).

(On the other hand, it handles "scroll to last position" better, either because it uses resolved symlinks in this case, or some other method - it scrolled to the last position when I opened the same file via a symlink (on the command line) again)

Version 0.11.80

Reproducible: Always




OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.36.2-blueyed

I am not really sure we should resolve symlinks for bookmark handling. Any reason you may give to convince me?
