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>

Error Removing file: File exists
