Public bug reported: System: Ubuntu 16.04. Application: Files (graphical file manager) (Nautilus?)
There are two disks mounted in the system: 1. / - root partition 2. /mnt/storage - another partition User has full privileges to root directory of disk#2 (storage). Let's create directory on disk#2: mkdir /mnt/storage/d Let's create files in the directory: touch /mnt/storage/d/file1 /mnt/storage/d/file2 1. Open Files application 2. Go to /mnt/storage/d/ 3. Try delete file1 It works. The file lands in trash. /mnt/storage/.Trash-1000 directory is created and the deleted file is there. Make following symbolic link: ln -s /mnt/storage/d /home/user/d 4. Open Files application 5. Go to ~/d 6. Try to remove file2 It DOESN'T WORK. It says it cannot move to trash and user can only permanently delete the file. The application does not properly recognize that ~/d directory is in fact the same as /mnt/storage/d. The same configuration works perfectly in Linux Mint Cinnamon. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: bot-comment -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1590951 Title: Files application fails to move files to trash on mounted partition To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1590951/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
