hi,

confirmation needed.

I suspect trash applet to delete not only symlink but also source file or folder to that link.

create a symlink to a folder containing many things.

Put it in trash.

Use trash-applet to empty trash → original folder and its content are deleted.

Create another symlink.

Put it in trash.

Use Nemo to empty trash → only link is deleted, and not original source.

Does anyone confirm ? If so, that sounds like a bug as I don’t expect source to be deleted when deleting a link.
