It was never intended to support symlinks... Please view this as a feature request then. Is there any consideration that symlinks are not supported? (In reply to Aetf from comment #2) > Please view this as a feature request then. > > Is there any consideration that symlinks are not supported? yes, complexity... Layout files are used for some features e.g. the Locked/Unlocked layouts. Based on if the file is read-only or not the layout is considered locked or not... There are multiple places in the code e.g. layout uniqueness, renaming etc... that symlinks would introduce a level on uncertainty and complexity. So I being the only developer/maintainer of Latte for now would not like to mess with this. |
