I can confirm that this bug is still in ubuntu-mate (version 19.10). when unmounting external drives without emptying trash, the trash icon stays on "full" forever (until the next login)
Expected behaviour would be a re-evaluation of the trash state of the mounted devices after any mount/unmount of any drive This papercut has reached the respectable age of 11 years which, of course, is getting a bit embarrassing. :-) I don't know where the trashcan code hides (somewhere in caja ?) I might try to give it a shot if I knew more.
