--- Comment #11 from Stefan Brüns <stefan.bru...@rwth-aachen.de> ---
This is mostly a bug in dolphin, it should pass the canonical path to baloo.

When you use `baloosearch -d ...`, it will return results even when the
specified directory path contains symlinks, as it resolves the specified
directory to its canonical path.

In case you wonder why canonicalization is the callers (in this case dolphin)
responsibility: Canonicalization is a potentially blocking file system
operation. Dolphin can use KIO to resolve the path without blocking the UI, it
may even already have the canonical path at hand.
