Title: Nautilus does not properly navigate symbolic links Status in Nautilus: New Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Test case: 1. Create a directory in Home called Folder 2. Right click on Folder in Nautilus and select 'make link' 3. Drag created link to Desktop 4. Double-click on Link to Folder to open it in Nautilus Clicking the back arrow in Nautilus behaves as it should--it takes you back to Desktop, not the parent folder of the target of the link. However, the architecture displayed near the top of the Nautilus window shows the parent directory of the target, not of the link (i.e., it shows [Home][Folder], not [Home][Desktop][Link to Folder] Pressing alt+up also takes you to the parent of the target, not the link. Is this a purposeful change? Nautilus did not behave this way in 12.04, and the old way seems to me more convenient and less confusing.
