Description András Bíró 2011-07-11 20:35:11 UTC 
Version:           2.4.0 (using KDE 4.6.4) 
OS:                Linux

Symbolic links are created in the active panel, therefor it's impossible to create the link with the same name as the original. I prefer the mc's "C-x s", which shows a dialog similar to the copy dialog.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
select a file, File menu/create symbolic link

Actual Results:  
symlink created in the active panel

Expected Results:  
symlink created in the inactive panel

Really... make symlinks are a common task for every sys-admin or leverage-user (the main target of krusader IMHO)... so I think this is an important small improvement.
Tnx in advance, for your great work on krusader!
