Created attachment 127515 follow symlink
As I first reported here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-utils/+bug/1614636
I have my dotfiles in a separate folder and I symlink some files, for instance ~/.config/mimeapps.list .
At first it appears as a symlink, then I run the following command: "xdg-mime default qutebrowser.desktop text/html" and the symlink gets overwritten as its own file.
I wonder if the following oneliner could be merged ?
Best regards
Patch 127515, "follow symlink":
