** Description changed: Scenario: Two PCs connected to a router on the same worgroup. Create a shared folder called 'sharedFolder' on PC1 and access it from PC2 through pcmanfm using the menu Go -> Network Devices -> PC1 -> sharedFolder which will basically navigate to smb://pc1/sharedFolder PC1: - 1. make a test folder and create a softlink in it pointing to a non-existing file + 1. in the sharedFolder make a test folder and create a softlink in it pointing to a non-existing file sudo mkdir test cd test ln -sT ../xyz test.txt PC2: 1. Through pcmanfm go to smb://pc1/sharedFolder as said before and cut the test folder with right-menu -> cut & paste it somewhere such as your desktop using right-menu -> paste Result: a modal window wil open hanging forever Side Notes: A) if you use the command-line mv test ~/ everything will work (eventual other staff will be moved leaving back only the broken link) and an error will be reported 'cannot remove test' directory not empty I would expect the same behaviour from my gui folder-manager B) I'm using pcmanfm 1.0.1 on lubuntu 12.10
