Re: [Bug 59703] Changed - No way of error detection for g_get_current_dir()

Hi, Pavel!

What fixed version do you exactly mean?

You want to incorporate into mc modified version of g_get_current_dir() or
you hope to chaise Owen (to death:) to fix ill-behaved version in glib?

Actually, I don't see any good solution in this situation....

The only thing, I'm sure on, is that current behaviour of mc on symlinks
is BROKEN and that is should be fixed.
