Binary package hint: gvfs

I am trying to delete a folder on an FTP server (Filezilla Windows FTP Server). I have the most current update in Hardy as of Apr 15, 2008. If the folder contains files, gvfs will delete them. It will say "preparing delete" for a while. Then, I get the following error:

"Couldn't remove the folder XYZ."
Under more details then:
"Directory not empty."
It will offer to skip the folder (or all folders that I am trying to delete in the batch).

When I open the folder to look: It is empty.

This might be related to bug #202553
