Symlinked Apps Not Showing Up


Recommended Posts

Alfred does not detect applications that are symlinked into /Applications


 


The case that I am thinking of is MacVim installed with homebrew. Alfred does not allow you to launch it.


 


What you were doing when the issue happened


Trying to launch MacVim.


 


Whether you were able to replicate it a second time by performing the same action


Yes


 


Include any screenshots that might help us


Will not really help.


 


Include the Alfred version & build number you are using


v2.0.3 (187)


 


Include your OS X version


10.8.3

Simply add the cellar folder to Alfred's scope and Alfred will [recursively] find the original apps.

Nice bug report btw, I wish all of them were this clear! :)
