           Summary: xfce does not honor symlinks in .config
           Product: Xfce
           Version: 4.3.90.1 (4.4beta1)
          Platform: PC (x86)
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Medium
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
        ReportedBy: hadmut at danisch.de


Hi,

I tried to share some of the xfce config files over several of my accounts in
order to have the same settings everywhere. I therefore created symlinks in
.config/xfce4/ and .config/xfce4/mcs_settings . 

Unfortunately, whenever anything is changed in the xfce config, xfce removes
the config file (and thus the symlink) and replaces it with a new file, thus
destroying symlinks.

regards
Hadmut
