You have been subscribed to a public bug: This is a similar 'bug' to #12893 but what I think there should be is a check-box in the nautilus configuration that just says 'Disable the trash and delete files immediately'
I realize you can shift delete, but there should be a way to just disable the trash all together. You can do this in both windows and OSX so there is no reason it shouldn't be possible in Linux. I believe the ideal situation would be the nautilus configuration as it is now with two additional check-boxes: 1. Disable the trash and delete files immediately. 2. Disable the trash for removable media and delete files immediately. Option two check-box would get greyed out when option 1 was checked. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Wishlist Status: Needs Info -- No way to disable trash in nautilus https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/118988 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
