Description Leonard den Ottolander 2006-07-05 21:34:14 UTC 
mc-4.6.1a-19.centos3.lj (mc-4.6.1a-19 FC6-devel rebuild on CentOS-3)

Soft links are not being followed. /home/backup is a symlink to /mnt/backup.
When browsing /mnt/backup the free space of /home will be shown instead of /mnt.

(I see you _did_ fix submounts, ie /var vs. /var/log. Good :-) )
Comment 1 Leonard den Ottolander 2006-07-05 21:36:20 UTC 
Duh. This should read

When browsing /home/backup the free space of /home will be shown instead of /mnt.
Comment 2 Jindrich Novy 2006-07-10 12:20:00 UTC 
Ok, fixed in 4.6.1a-20.

Thanks!

Welcome :) .

Do you have any plans to integrate this functionality in the mini status using
the listing mode dialog? That would be really nice!
Comment 4 Jindrich Novy 2006-07-11 08:01:14 UTC 
Well, I'm not quite sure I want to implement it. But feel free to send patches ;-)
