[Bug 47273] New: Unix symlinks no longer work in wine-staging 4.8
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47273 Bug ID: 47273 Summary: Unix symlinks no longer work in wine-staging 4.8 Product: Wine-staging Version: 4.8 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: regression Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: gabrielopcode(a)gmail.com CC: erich.e.hoover(a)gmail.com, leslie_alistair(a)hotmail.com, z.figura12(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- With wine-staging-4.8, symlinks created on Linux (i.e. outside of Wine) to directories no longer work in Wine. They show up as empty files. Previously, and on wine-devel, they work just fine and even show up as symlinks under file managers. The culprit seems to be the updated ntdll-Junction_Points patchset, though I've no idea what part of it specifically does this. I know that support for NT symlinks and junctions was updated to differentiate them, but IMO support for native unix symlinks should remain as it was before this updated patchset, so they continue to work like before. Many people, including me, rely on that for our workflow. Unfortunately I don't know how to bisect wine-staging patches so I can't pinpoint exactly which patch in the series is responsible for this regression. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

I am sure I tested with the latest wine-staging-4.9 first and then went over older versions, but it seems I messed something up or I don't know what happened... I'll be closing this bug now. I'll do more tests tonight with both 64-bit and 32-bit prefixes and I'll reopen if I find anything, but I doubt it since it seems to work now. Sorry for the noise. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
