Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
Given the following conditions:
1. User "x" has a directory he owns on on file-system "y" which is _not_ his
home directory
2. User "x" does not have write access to the "y" root directory
3. There is no ".trash-x" directory in the "y" root directory or it is not
writable by "x"
If the user "x" attempts to move a file from his directory on "y" to
Trash he will get the following error message:
“Cannot move file to trash do you want to delete immediately?”
With no indication as to why or where the file couldn't be moved.
I suggest this will be resolved in one of two ways:
1. Add a "details" button that will specify that the file couldn't be moved to
".trash-x" (Specifying a full path, a sufficiently knowledgeable user will then
be able to simple create the required directory)
2. Offer the user to create the required directory by asking for an
administrative password to do so.
