Bug ID: 419600
Summary: Gwenview slow when opening images from symlinked
folders
Product: gwenview
Version: 19.12.3
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: gwenview-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: matteo.mazzare...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Gwenview takes c.a 15 seconds to open any image in a symlinked folder (e.g.
Downloads, Documents) if the application runs with the %U argument (it's on by
default on Manjaro). Deleting the %U argument fixes all the issues I have with
Gwenview.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1a. Open an image using Gwenview from the Dolphin file manager in a symlinked
folder.
1b. Alternatively, open Gwenview from the Plasma start menu.
OBSERVED RESULT
Gwenview doesn't respond for c.a 15 seconds when opening an image from the
symlinked directory.
EXPECTED RESULT
Gwenview should open almost immediately. This is what in fact happens when
removing the %U argument on my machine.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I did also encounter the exact same bug running Kubuntu 19.10, but have only
now managed to fix it by removing the %U argument from the exec command.
