Description alexandrov 2008-03-21 06:44:55 UTC 
1. Create symbolic link to the compiler directory.
2. Create compiler collection where base directory is created above symbolic link.
3. Try to change base directory - physical directory will be shown in "Select Base directory" dialog. It's confusing.

issue confirmed with older CND (6.8?) but we don' allow changing base directory anymore so I guess there is nothing to fix today.
