Create a directory under /tmp, ""test"" for example {{{ mkdir /tmp/test }}} 2. Copy some files (pdf, audio, scripts, anything) inside /tmp/test 3. Make a symlink to this folder under ~/Documents {{{ cd ~/Documents ln -s /tmp/test . }}} 4. Run Sugar 5. Go to the Journal 6. Click ""Documents"" icon at the bottom Issue: Your files under /tmp/test do not appear in the Journal list. Expected behaviour: Show the files under /tmp/test ---- I found this topic was already discussed here[1] and a patch was applied here[2] but I think there is a bug on this patch because of this that I'm reporting here. I'm uploading a patch that allow symlinks to be followed but I'd like to improve it because it doesn't contemplate all the cases.
