            Bug ID: 421633
           Summary: Cannot move file/folder into symlinked folder
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 20.04.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: kde at trummer.xyz
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Dolphin can't move files/folders into a symlinked folder.
moving with 'mv' works of course.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. create a symlinked folder or take any existing one
2. create a test file or take any existing one
3. move the test file into the symlinked folder

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin throws an error, "an older element already exists". When you try to
move a folder in a symlinked folder, it wants to overwrite them.
Effectively you cannot move a file or folder into another symbolically linked
folder anymore.

EXPECTED RESULT
being able to move files into symlinked folders
