Description Yerrey Dev 2021-12-31 07:38:17 UTC

Creating a folder fails without error in a folder that requires root privileges but is a symlink path to the actual location. For example, creating a folder fails in /bin/ but succeeds in /usr/bin/. Running latest git master of kio & dolphin.

lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root     7 joulu   6 20:48 bin -> usr/bin
drwxr-xr-x  14 root root  4096 joulu   6 20:51 usr

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Attempt to create a folder in root folder which is symlinked
