I’m suspecting apparmor denies write access to the resolved target of the symlink. Would need confirmation from someone in the security team. Not sure what the plans are for supporting writing to the SD card.

My home folders (Documents, Downloads, Pictures and Videos) are symlinks from a folders with the same name from SD-Card in order to save internal storage. I made those symlinks with "ln -s -r" through a terminal. When I try to download a file, directly or just selecting option "open with" it fails. If I try to download, for example a PDF file and try to open with document viewer, document viewer will say: the files doesn't exists. If I try to download the file directly it will complete the downlad but the result will be the same. In the log I can find that: Failed moving file from "/home/phablet/.local/share/ubuntu-download-manager/webbrowser-app/Downloads/example.pdf" to "/home/phablet/Downloads/example.pdf http://paste.ubuntu.com/14848556/ Bq E4.5 ubuntu edition.
