Dropbox 178.4.4811, MacOS Ventura
I upgraded Dropbox to use File Provider, so the Dropbox folder now lives in ~/Library/CloudServices. Aliases no longer work.
1. If I create an alias to a folder (actually, to a package) in Dropbox by right-clicking and selecting "Make alias", the alias appears with the correct icon, but after a moment the icon changes to generic file icon. Double-clicking it produces a message saying that it's "used by the system" and can't be opened.
2. If I pause Dropbox syncing, I can create an alias and use it. However, as soon as I turn syncing back on, the above happens. If the alias is moved out of the Dropbox folder before I resume syncing, it continues to work.
Similar aliases which were created before the upgrade to File Provider continue to work as well.
Clearly, it's something Dropbox is doing. It's rather a nuisance, as I use such aliases quite heavily. Is there a solution?
