Public bug reported:
What happens:
1. I attempt to synchronise the folder called Music in my /home/user folder by
marking it for synchronisation in the the UbuntuOne client window.
2. The folder doesn't exist, and was instead replaced with a symbolic link to a
folder on a local server
3. UbuntuOne fails to synchronise the server, and simply keeps looping
"Gathering information", until the user closes the window.
What should happen:
1. I attempt to synchronise the folder called Music in my /home/user folder by
marking it for synchronisation in the the UbuntuOne client window.
2. The folder doesn't exist, and was instead replaced with a symbolic link to a
folder on a local server
3. UbuntuOne notices that there is an invalid symlink preventing it from
creating the folder for syncing, and prompts the user for permission to delete
it.
