nautilus-follow-symlink is a nautilus extension that adds a menu entry on symbolic links to directories which open the pointed directory (the real path).
It does so both when right clicking on a the folder icon or on the contents of an opened symbolic link.
These binaries are for Nautilus 2.21 (and up, up to 2.32). At the moment there's no binaries for Nautilus 3.

GNOME 3 pre-release: nautilus-follow-symlink-1.2-pre.1.tar.gz
Compile in the standard GNU fashion:
$ tar zxvf nautilus-follow-symlink-1.1.tar.gz
$ cd nautilus-follow-symlink-1.1
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr # Note the prefix should be the same as nautilus for the translations to work
# (or e.g. $ ./configure --prefix=`pkg-config --variable prefix libnautilus-extension`)
$ make
# make install
$ tar zxvf nautilus-follow-symlink-1.1.tar.gz
$ cd nautilus-follow-symlink-1.1
$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc -b
(or debuild -us -uc -b)
$ rpmbuild -tb nautilus-follow-symlink-1.1.tar.gz
Versions of GNOME 2.20 and below should use 1.0.2, which is the last release supporting them.
Look in in files/ for the appropriate files. Building older versions is
a bit harder, refer to the BUILD file included in the tarball.
None so far for the current version.
If you have a contribution (new ideas, fixes, translations...) to make, please contact me.
