Bug Description

I know this is an old one, but this is still present, either it is a regression or not. Files in another partition than home can only be deleted but not moved to Trash, even if the whole partition has writing allowed for the current user.

How to reproduce:

USER=th

mkdir /home/th/shim
sudo mkdir /mnt/shim
sudo mount -o bind /home/th/shim
cd /mnt/shim
touch ttt
nautilus /mnt/shim

Now trashing ttt fails. However trashing when in /home/th/shim it works.

There are rumors that a Trash existent directory like .Trash-th might help in this specific partition/mount but it does not help.

Thank you for your bug report. It does sound similar to https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/1071, is that still an issue in the current Ubuntu serie?
