Bug description

In Quicksilver Catalog > User, the Home, Downloads, Documents, and Desktop folders are automatically scanned and added to the catalog. However, if some of these folders (Home, Desktop) are aliases/symlinks (such as when backed up/managed by OneDrive), Quicksilver only catalogs 1 single file - the alias/symlink.

This is related to #2758, but that is about custom sources. This bug report is dealing with user directories that users would expect to be scanned by default.

I'm on MacOS 14, that's not an option in the dropdown below.

Steps to reproduce

Easy:

  1. Install Quicksilver & OneDrive
  2. Set up OneDrive to "Backup Important Mac Folders"
    • This will create aliases at ~/Desktop and ~/Documents for ~/Library/CloudStorage/OneDrive/{Desktop, Documents}
  3. Check Quicksilver Catalog

Expected behavior

I expect Quicksilver Catalog to resolve aliases/symlinks and scan the folder that those are pointing to

Relevant Plugins

N/A, as far as I can tell. This has to do with Quicksilver's catalog default scanning locations
