[Bug 913098] [NEW] sudo nautilus is not able to acces root trash folder - unable to delete files in root trash folder

 

Public bug reported:

I've started nautilus with sudo for accesing system crash files in
/var/crash , which are only readable with root priviledges.

After handle the crash files(sending) they become opsolete to me, so I
move hem to trash.

When I try to acces root trash folder with(still sudo)nautilus it was not possible.
Nautilus keeps on the message"loading" and does not show the trash.

So, I have files in the root trash that I could not access with sudo
nautilus and with this I am not able to delete them completely.
