The bug is still there when you use LibreOffice Writer and tested with the live cd. 1) Create a Writer document. Write "test" into it and save it into "Documents" 2) Quit Writer. 3) Make a link to your document. 4) Writer accepts to open both the original file and the link-file and start to edit them both.
I'm not able to use any software to check the original reported error with the live cd. ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/774312 Title: making link from Nautilus doesn't use the correct working directory Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Binary package hint: nautilus When making a link from nautilus and using it from another folder doesn't set the correct working folder. Example steps to reproduce: 1) Find a file and make a link to it by right clicking in nautilus. 2) Move the link-file to desktop. 3) Double clicking runs the action, but it is not the correct working folder The working folder should be where the file is, not, as in this example, on desktop. Always reproducible. I use some programs that depend on being started in the folder where data is. This is not a problem if there is only one data file, but it is, when there are several files necessary such as an IDE.
