unexpected error and sync stops

[kurokirasama]

Describe the bug

Since a while now I'm getting a notification with the message:

Unexpected error
Please restart to continue syncing

Which I did and it usually goes away, but since today the problem persists.

To Reproduce

I'm using maestral gui, so that's why I have a notification

Expected behaviour

It hould synchronize without stopping System:

• Maestral version: 1.7.1
• Python version: Python 3.8.10
• OS: [e.g. Ubuntu] Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS
• Desktop environment: [e.g. Gnome 3.32] GNOME Shell 3.36.9
• PyQt version (for Linux GUI): 5.15.7

Thanks for the report, and sorry for the slow response time! It appears that the issue lies with trying not to follow symlinks. The file system API used for this doesn't seem to be available on your system.

I'll update this for Maestral to fall back to non-symlink aware calls in such cases.
