#6033: A symbolic link is broken in an info window when pointing to a volume

I have here an example, how symbolic link to mimetype file that do not
have default application, is broken. Source or error message is in
src/kits/tracker/InfoWindow.cpp :
{{{
// Use the same method as used to resolve fIconModel, which handles
// both absolute and relative symlinks. if the link is broken, try to
// get a little more information.
if (model->IsSymLink()) {
bool linked = false;
Model resolvedModel(model->EntryRef(), true, true);
if (resolvedModel.InitCheck() == B_OK) {
// Get the path of the link
BPath traversedPath;
resolvedModel.GetPath(&traversedPath);
// If the BPath is initialized, then check the file for
existence
if (traversedPath.InitCheck() == B_OK) {
BEntry entry(traversedPath.Path(), false); //
look at the target itself
if (entry.InitCheck() == B_OK && entry.Exists())
linked = true;
}
}
// always show the target as it is: absolute or relative!
BSymLink symLink(model->EntryRef());
char linkToPath[B_PATH_NAME_LENGTH];
symLink.ReadLink(linkToPath, B_PATH_NAME_LENGTH);
fLinkToStr = linkToPath;
if (!linked)
fLinkToStr += " (broken)"; // link points to missing
object
}}}
I suppose that problem is with that Model.cpp file. Symbolic link points
to location that is volume and symbolic link at the same time. But it is
only my guess.
