I'm on OpenBSD 6.5. My ~/Downloads is a symlink to a directory on a separate harddrive and it seems unveil is preventing chromium from following the link.

I want to enjoy the added security of unveil, but would like chromium to be able to follow the symlink to my Downloads directory. Please, how do I accomplish that?

Also, what if I want ~/.config/chromium to also be a symlink? Would it be too complicated to allow that, too?

(I cannot make much of the unveil(2) man page.)
