[Bug 469571] Re: Cannot move any file outside of home folder to trash (ext4)

 

Same with me - it happens only for user with encrypted home directory
deleting files outside of the same directory on the same filesystem
(logical partition). The error was there already with 9.04 and persists
in 9.10.

If it is of any help: On 9.04, I have migrated from a single partition
(ext3) to LVM (separate physical partition for /boot, single LVM's
volume group for the /) with ext4 and the behaviour is the same - no
influence.

I have reported that already in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/gvfs/+bug/106621/comments/53 (partly off-
topic there).

Bug description:
Using Karmic 2.6.31-14-generic

When I try to delete a file anywhere outside of my home folder, I get a message saying that it cannot be moved to trash. I am given an option to permanently delete it.

Steps to reproduce:
1 - Go to the /tmp folder.
2 - Create a new file there (Right click > Create Document > Empty File).
3 - Try to delete that file.
