[Bug 297993] Re: Cannot clear the ~/Private/.Trash-xxxx

 

It's probably more likely a GVFS issue than a Nautilus one. Running
"gvfs-ls trash:" also doesn't display any files

Cannot clear the ~/Private/.Trash-xxxx

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

Intrepid Ibex - last updated
Kernel 2.6.27-7-generic
Gnome-Desktop 2.24

Using ecryptfs-utils - all working fine (known bugs excluded), but:

If you want to delete a file in the folder ~/Private via Nautilus-Menu-Option -> "Move to Trash", the file to be deleted will be moved to the folder ~/Private/.Trash-xxxx into the relevant sub-folders respectivily. And there they are gathered forever. You can't delete them via Desktop-Trash-Icon (it's empty!!)

Using a Terminal and typing -> "rm -f filename" inside the folder ~/Private the file will be deleted finally. Or using the Nautilus-Menu-Option "cut" and "paste" outside ~/Private, to delete them there, is working.

Notice: Also tested with jaunty - same error.
