deleted items not in trash

[AGreen BHM]

When I delete items anywhere (using 9.04 Alpha 6) they do not appear in the trash, but are not deleted. I need to navigate to /home/<username>/.local/share/Trash/files in order to view the "deleted" items and to permanently delete them. This is on the Live CD that I put on a flash drive with Unetbootin as well as when I installed it to my HDD using that flash drive.

I'm having the exact same issue on 9.04 i386 (32 bit) Release Candidate (Alternate), installed fresh.

I reinstalled for other reasons and this time chose not to encrypt the home directory. The previous install was the first time I had tried that option, and I also had the trash bin issue. Could this be connected?

[David Rahrer (david-rahrer)]

I forgot to make it clear that the trash bin issue is not happening on this latest install, sans encrypted home directory. I wish launchpad allowed a brief edit period for entries.

David (and anyone else who's reading this), I think it's worth noting that at some point, between the time I originally posted this issue and before the beta came out, I downloaded an update that corrected this. I can't tell you which one, though, since I always just download all available updates.

I'm having the same issue, 9.04 RC x64 without the home directory encrypted.

This happens to me on a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.04 32-bit. Any file or folder I delete do not appear on the Trash applet.

By the way, I have the root filesystem on a different partition than my home directory. The root filesystem (/) is on sda3 and my home directory (/home) is on sda5. Both are ext4 partitions.

I can confirm this bug on a fresh Jaunty install (32-bit). I'm using ext4.
When i delete a file it doesnt ask for confirmation.

I also see this bug on Jaunty, AMD x64. The files are in .local/share/Trash/files but the GUI trash folder is empty; also, there's no confirmation on delete.

[Andy Eyre (science-andyeyre)]

Hm. Rebooted because of other GUI artefacts (missing menu items) and now the trashcan seems to be working again. I hadn't installed any updates, but still.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release the Karmic Koala. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.
