Scenario: - FreeBSD stable/14 - latest ports - $HOME is /users/martin - /users/martin is a symlink to the actual home directory Result: - If, in dolphin's settings, the default location is set to "/users/martin", an error message pops up: "The location for the home folder is invalid or does not exist, it will not be applied." - Entering the real home dir is o.k., but this is different from $HOME. Expected result: - Just as with kde5, having a symlink as $HOME should be working. Note: - There is another issue in that dolphin does not show thumbnails anymore (and yes I know how to turn them on and off, and configure the file types for which they should be shown). I suspect that the underlying cause might also be this misbehavior when $HOME is a symlink. - There was also bug 285244. -- Martin

(In reply to Martin Birgmeier from comment #0) Please, report (In reply to Martin Birgmeier from comment #1)(In reply to Martin Birgmeier from comment #0) Please report upstream, I believe the problem is not FreeBSD specific. As for missing thumbnails, I cannot confirm it. Dolphin displays both image and video thumbnails for me.

The missing thumbnails issue seems to be solved in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=504126. That one is a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=503799. -- Martin
Created attachment 260423 [details] patch for missing thumbnails when using oxygen theme The attached patch reverts the two commits mentioned in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=504126, resulting in thumbnail generation working again. I should probably change the title of this bug report... -- Martin
