Description brunombn 2016-04-29 19:50:35 UTC 
Using Ubuntu 16.04 and Nautilus 3.14.3.
Already reported the bug in Ubuntu, but was asked to report it upstream.
Bug in Ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1576428

That small black curved arrow emblem that is shown in symlinks is not being displayed for all symlinks.

Reproducing the bug may need a bit of trial and error.

To reproduce, create symlinks from some of the files in /usr/bin (or some other folder) into the home folder.
For example, in my case, symlinks to "apt" and "apt-cdrom" don't display the arrow emblem.

Thanks for reporting this. This is likely a duplicate of https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues/1189

It has been fixed, but may be reverted until performance issues are resovled.
