You have been subscribed to a public bug: When I press Shift + Delete, I want to permanently delete the selected files. If I'm at a nautilus window this works as expected.
However I noticed that when I'm in the desktop, either the files get sent to the bin (as if I just pressed Delete), or nothing happens. What I expected to happen was a dialog to pop up asking if I'm sure I want to permanently delete the files. (I'm not sure which package is relevant. Here [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage#Graphical_Environment] it says that nautilus handles the desktop but I found no such process running) Using Ubuntu 19.10 and gnome-shell version 3.34.1+git20191024-1ubuntu1~19.10.1 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.10 Package: gnome-shell 3.34.1+git20191024-1ubuntu1~19.10.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.3.0-40.32-generic 5.3.18 Uname: Linux 5.3.0-40-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu8.4 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Tue Mar 17 02:31:15 2020 DisplayManager: gdm3 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/gnome-shell ProcEnviron: LANG=el_GR.UTF-8 PATH=(custom, no user) SHELL=/bin/bash XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> RelatedPackageVersions: mutter-common 3.34.1+git20191107-1ubuntu1~19.10.1 SourcePackage: gnome-shell UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug eoan -- Shift+Delete doesn't work on desktop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1867700 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
