SUMMARY I have a partition in which certain folders are bind-mounted to folders in my home directory. When I click this device in the dolphin sidebar, it opens one of the folders which have been bind-mounted, instead of the actual device. The directory structure is schematically as follows: /run/media/kishore/oldhome (mountpoint of the partition, which is named `Arch-home`) |- Documents |- some other directories `Documents` is bind-mounted to /home/kishore/Documents STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 1. Mount a partition (say 'Arch-home') which has multiple folders. 2. Bind-mount one of the folders (say 'Documents') to a folder in your home directory. 3. Click on the partition name in the 'devices' section of Dolphin's sidebar. OBSERVED RESULT When I click the item labelled 'Arch-home' in the dolphin sidebar (it appears under 'Devices'), I am taken to /home/kishore/Documents, instead of /run/media/kishore/oldhome (Note that the contents of these two locations are not the same, so it is not merely about displaying the right path in the addressbar.) EXPECTED RESULT Dolphin should correctly open the actual partition.

Still an issue in 23.04.3. Encountering this on a NixOS "root on tmpfs" setup (https://github.com/nix-community/impermanence), where various paths including files are bind-mounted from a subdirectory of /nix (the original mount point of the persistent drive /dev/nvme0n1p2). In my case, dolphin tries to open /etc/krb5.keytab instead of /nix. lsblk output: NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS sda 8:0 0 232.9G 0 disk └─bcache0 253:0 0 3.6T 0 disk /home sdb 8:16 0 111.8G 0 disk sdc 8:32 0 3.6T 0 disk └─bcache0 253:0 0 3.6T 0 disk /home sr0 11:0 1 367.8M 0 rom nvme0n1 259:0 0 232.9G 0 disk ├─nvme0n1p1 259:1 0 512M 0 part /boot └─nvme0n1p2 259:2 0 232.4G 0 part /var/log/journal /var/lib/systemd /var/lib/swap /var/lib/private/anisette-server /var/lib/openvpn-gamevpn /var/lib/lockdown /var/lib/libvirt /var/lib/cups /var/lib/bluetooth /var/lib/alsa /var/lib/AccountsService /var/keys /tmp /root /etc/nixos /var/log/wtmp /var/log/btmp /etc/machine-id /etc/krb5.keytab /nix/store /var/lib/nixos /nix
