[Bug 260495] [NEW] Unable to back up wine directory with Brasero (bad handling of symlinks)

[Adam Petaccia]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: brasero

Brasero handles symlinks very poorly, and I am unable to back up a wine
directory because of it. Unforunately, ~/.wine/dosdevices/z: points to
/, which causes brasero to think it has to back up EVERYTHING, including
that symlink to / which makes brasero think it has to back up EVERYTHING
including the symlink to...

To make matters worse, removing the wine directory from the project
doesn't make Brasero forget that it added it, so it still thinks I'm
backing up 500+ GB of data, and complains. Saving and relaunching fixes
this problem.
