Bug ID: 369275
Summary: Virtual symlinks to large files are not visible
Product: dolphin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: jonathan.do...@gmail.com
Some symlinks are not shown at all in Dolphin, even though they are perfectly
visible in Thunar, Konqueror, and ls.
I am using Dolphin 16.08.1 (Archlinux packages) to view files on a TMSU
(https://github.com/oniony/TMSU) virtual filesystem. TMSU uses tags to generate
a virtual hierarchical filesystem, with symlinks pointing to the actual files.
Most of these links work fine in Dolphin, but any link pointing to a file
bigger than exactly 2 GiB is totally missing. One thing I noticed is that
unlike symlinks on a real filesystem which typically have a small size (< 100
B), the symlinks in the TMSU filesystem appear to be the same size as the file
they point to, since they only exist in memory and have no disk size. The large
files being pointed to show fine in Dolphin, as do symlinks to them made on a
normal filesystem.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install TMSU
2. mkdir test; cd test
3. truncate -s 2047M small.file
4. truncate -s 2048M large.file
5. tmsu init
6. tmsu tag --tags="file" *.file
7. mkdir tmsu-mp
8. tmsu mount tmsu-mp
9. ls -l tmsu-mp/tags/file (observe both symlinks)
9. dolphin tmsu-mp/tags/file (observe only 1 symlink to small.file)
Actual Results:
Dolphin does not show link to large.file
Expected Results:
Dolphin should show link to large.file, just like ls, Thunar, and Konqueror do.
