Nautilus keeps showing old folder, after symlink is removed and folder is recreated.

[NoBugs!]

I had symlinked /var/www/wordpress to a folder in my home directory. After unlinking the link with unlink command, then mkdir /var/www/wordpress, nautilus still shows the wordpress directory having all the contents of my directory, though ls shows the new directory is empty.

Thank you for your bug report. Could you try if that's still an issue in newer versions? Can you trigger it every time with those steps?
