Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

To reproduce this bug, open some samba share 'smb://myserver/myshare',
for example, with nautilus. Create a deletable FILE named 'mytest', for
example, with any contents in 'smb://myserver/myshare'. Now, create a
FOLDER also named 'mytest' in the same place 'smb://myserver/myshare'.
When the FOLDER 'mytest' is created, the FILE 'mytest' is deleted
without any prompt. (you must have the privileges to create/delete
folders/files in the share and the FILE attribute of 'mytest' must be
writable)

The file system won't allow a file and a folder both with the same name
coexist in the same place, but I expect nautilus should at least prompt
before it deletes the file. I have tested it on my two different
machines and both have the same issue.

hope this is useful
