[Bug 908409] Re: eog cannot delete files outside of the home partition
I just copied some jpg pictures to /var/tmp, opened the first with EoG
and deleted them one by one using the DEL key.
After this all files were visible in the trash from where I could
restore them.
Closing the bug report but feel free to reopen if you still see a
problem in Ubuntu 15.10 or 16.04 (development).
** Changed in: eog (Ubuntu)

Title:
eog cannot delete files outside of the home partition
Status in eog package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Distro: 10.04.3 LTS
eog:
Installed: 2.30.0-0ubuntu1
Candidate: 2.30.0-0ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 2.30.0-0ubuntu1 0
500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Steps to reproduce:-
Open image file from a partition other than the one on which ~ exists, in eog
Delete image (e.g. via DEL key), and confirm action.
Actual behaviour:-
Message saying "Couldn't access Deleted Items folder"
Expected behaviour:-
File deleted (or moved to wastebasket)
Please note, this is NOT A DUPLICATE.
A similar issue was reported here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eog/+bug/42571
This issue is closed as fixed. It was re-opened, because a problem clearly still exists, but subsequently closed again with the justification that any similar problem is in fact "A DIFFERENT ONE" (as in "not a duplicate"): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eog/+bug/42571/comments/10
To emphasise, the original bug is marked as fixed, and the maintainers
insist that we now have a new bug which behaves in exactly the same
way. If you close this ticket as a duplicate, the issue will not get
fixed. The problem I describe above is real, and exists.
Thank you!
