dolphin-error-message

right-mouse-button -> create-new -> basic-link-to-file-or-directory

file-name: test.lk
enter-path-of-file-or-directory: /media/$USER/FADBlack500gExt4/temp/

when do double-click on just created link the error-message in the attached-file to this email appears.

Note: If I create the same link in the xfce4-terminal like
        ln -s /media/$USER/FADBlack500gExt4/temp/ test.lk
      it works!

To me it doesn't seem to be the same bug because in my case it doesn't show anything in the browser dialog besides the error message while in bug 357171 Paul Worrall says it shows directories.

I should note that when I make:
 right-mouse-button -> create-new -> basic-link-to-file-or-directory
   and then I press the Open-file-dialog-button and choose the directory   
   manually from there 
   it works!

I should also note that when I make:
 right-mouse-button -> create-new -> basic-link-to-file-or-directory
   and then I insert in the 
   File name: test.lk
   Enter path of file or directory: /media/user/FADBlack500gExt4/temp/
   it works!

But when I make:
 right-mouse-button -> create-new -> basic-link-to-file-or-directory
   and then I insert in the 
   File name: test.lk
   Enter path of file or directory: /media/$USER/FADBlack500gExt4/temp/
   it doesn't work!
   It shows instead the following error message when I double-click test.lk:
     Unable to run the command specified. The file or folder /home/user/test.lk 
       does not exist.



Thanks!
