Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus
I mounted an external drive. However, I cant seem to delete the directory at its top most level (recursive). If I go into each subdir and delete the files inside then come up 1 level and clear that, and do it manually it works. I later tried to do it with cli mode. This seems to work as well. However, it doesnt seem to work if i do it from nautilus. I get the error as: There was an error deleting <directory name> Show more details Error Removing file: File exists ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - Recursive directory deletion doesnt work for external mounted drives + [Hardy] Recursive directory deletion doesnt work for external mounted drives -- [Hardy] Recursive directory deletion doesnt work for external mounted drives https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186441 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
