--- Comment #1 from Werner Lehmann <wl at dm17.com> ---
I can confirm this bug on Fedora 37, same version of Dolphin. Plus related
other issues with symlink handling:

mkdir -p linktargets
touch 'linktargets/file' 'linktargets/file # file'
for x in linktargets/* ; do ln -s "$x"; done

This produces

$ tree
.
├── file -> linktargets/file
├── file # file -> linktargets/file # file
└── linktargets
           ├── file
           └── file # file


For the link named "file":

1) "Show Target" does not work on any of the links. As reported with this
ticket.

2) The status bar shows issue #456198. When selecting this link, the status bar
reads:
      file (empty document, Link to file:///home/wl/var/test/file)
It should be
      file (empty document, Link to file:///home/wl/var/test/linktarget/file)

For the link named "file # file":

3) The status bar reads:
      file # file (empty document, Link to file:///home/wl/var/test/file %23
file)
It should be
      file (empty document, Link to file:///home/wl/var/test/linktarget/file #
file)

4) The properties dialog, button ">.", does not resolve the link but shows a
warning:
      The file or folder /home/wl/var/test/linktargets/file  does not exist.
It should resolve and jump to the link instead. Apparently it cuts everything
off after the hash symbol.

Note that column "Link Destination" in the file list always shows the correct
value.
