Likewise on Kubuntu 22.10 with Dolphin 22.08.2. It's okay when fringe features don't work right, but this is pretty basic! *** Bug 465776 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Dolphin Version 23.04.3 - correct symlink path shown ---- Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20230716 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.6 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.108.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 Kernel Version: 6.4.3-1-default (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-8550U CPU @ 1.80GHz Memory: 7.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics 620 Manufacturer: LENOVO Product Name: 81CT System Version: Lenovo YOGA 730-13IKB *** Bug 473506 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Although I reported this as fixed I have reopened this bug after further investigation. The link target is correctly reported if the symlink is absolute. If the symlink is relative the link as shown as being the actual file STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a symlink to a relative address within the home folder 2. Hover the the cursor over the symlink OBSERVED RESULT The path of the symlink itself is shown. EXPECTED RESULT The path of the referred file should be shown. If the symlink is to an absolute address the referred file is shown Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20230716 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.6 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.108.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 Kernel Version: 6.4.3-1-default (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 456198 *** |
Created attachment 155314 [details] dolphin showing the incorrect simlink path in the status bar When selecting a simlink the status bar does not show the actual location of the file or directory the simlink points to. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. create a simlink for any file or directory 2. select the simlink OBSERVED RESULT The path of the simlink itself is shown. EXPECTED RESULT The path of the referred file should be shown. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.15.85-1-MANJARO (64-bit) KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.101.0 Qt Version: 5.15.7 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Some system generated simlinks actually show the correct path. The "/dev/stderr", "/dev/stdin", and "/dev/stdout" simlinks for example are properly shown as "/proc/self/fd/2", "/proc/self/fd/0", and "/proc/self/fd/1". However other simlinks, such as in "/usr/share/icons/breeze/actions/", all simlinks show themselves, not where they point to.
