Public bug reported:

When you delete a non-empty directory in Nautilus or Nemo, the Folder-
Icon disappears and stays away but when you refresh the current
directory or navigate back there it reappears. No error message at all.
This bug is very annoying in two ways:

1) When you only have smb access to the share you have to delete all
files and directories in sub, subsub and subsubsubdirecories by hand to
actually delete a directory.

2) You don't get warned that the delete operation failed. In our case
this produced a horrible mess in our shares before we recognized what
was going wrong.

You can find many people complaining in various forums. I found bug
reports in bugtrackers of Nemo, Nautilus and Gnome but the root seems to
be this (upstream fixed) bug in samba:

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13204

Please cherry pick the fix into current version of samba.

Thanks a lot for your help!
