Description Andrew Udvare 2012-06-20 18:46:44 UTC
If you are in a directory that is really a symbolic link, and you open a new tab or window from that window, you get into a new terminal with the fully resolved path. I expect Konsole to go to the symbolically linked path.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Konsole and type the following:
$ cd
$ mkdir a
$ ln -s a b
$ cd b
4. File -> Open New Window or Open New Tab
Actual Results:  
New terminal is in directory a

Expected Results:  
Should go into b (which is a symbolic link)
