Description Roland Seuhs 2004-07-31 13:19:26 UTC 
Version:           3.2.1 (using KDE 3.2.1, SuSE)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 (SuSE Linux)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.5-7.95-default

If you have an URL like fish://root@computer/symbolic_link_to_directory, the directory is displayed fine, but if you want to copy a file into the directory (with drag&drop), fish tries to overwrite the link with that file (and not put the file into the dir as it should).
<p>
This is a bug in fish: because the line
<p>
scp somefile.dat root@computer:/symbolic_link_to_directory
<p>
works as intended (somefile.dat is put into the linked directory and the symbolic link is not overwritten)
