Public bug reported: I am using an Ubuntu 18.04 Vagrant machine, which has had the ubuntu- mate-desktop tasksel applied to it. I mount a filesystem from the Virtualbox Host using this line in /etc/fstab:
HostHome /HostHome vboxsf _netdev,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177 0 0 With this build, I have installed the atom snap package, and when I try to remove a file from the file tree, I get an error saying: The following file couldn't be moved to the trash. /HostHome/Documents/01 Projects/K5-Ansible-Openstack-Development-Machine/ansible_users.retry Is gvfs-trash installed? On further investigation, I found that while gvfs-trash is installed (via the gvfs-common package), it has been depreciated, preferring gio. Running either `gio trash` or `gvfs-trash` specifying that path (`/HostHome/Documents/01 Projects/K5-Ansible-Openstack-Development- Machine/ansible_users.retry`) returns this report: gio: file:///HostHome/Documents/01%20Projects/K5-Ansible-Openstack- Development-Machine/ansible_users.retry: Unable to find or create trash directory for /HostHome/Documents/01 Projects/K5-Ansible-Openstack- Development-Machine/ansible_users.retry ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: libglib2.0-bin 2.56.1-2ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-22.24-generic 4.15.17 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-22-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: MATE Date: Fri Jun 1 08:26:04 2018 SourcePackage: glib2.0 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: glib2.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: gvfs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug bionic uec-images ** Also affects: gvfs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to glib2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1774601 Title: gio trash (or gvfs-trash) on a vboxsf partition fails with "Unable to find or create trash directory" Status in glib2.0 package in Ubuntu: New Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I am using an Ubuntu 18.04 Vagrant machine, which has had the ubuntu- mate-desktop tasksel applied to it.
