Description Andreas Henriksson 2008-04-22 22:00:06 UTC
Please describe the problem:
Forwarding bugreport filed by Géraud Meyer <geraud_meyer@hotmail.com> in the debian bug tracking system at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=474616

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Package: nautilus
Version: 2.22.1-1
Severity: normal

With nautilus trash a file whose name begins by an underscore and that
will not go in the home trash folder  (but in <mountpoint>/.Trash-<UID>/).
Trying to delete it from the trash with nautilus won't succeed showing
those messages:
1) Are you sure you want to permanently delete
"<absolute>_<path>_.Trash-<UID>__<_filename>" from the trash?
2) Error while deleting.
There was an error getting information about
"<absolute>_<path>_.Trash-<UID>__<_filename>".
Error stating file
'/<absolute>/<path>/.Trash-<UID>_/files/<filename(without leading
underscore)>': No such file or directory

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create the file "_test" on a filesystem that's not the same as the one your $HOME is on.
2. Move _test to Trash.
3. Try to empty trash -> File not found (wrong path - underscore is at wrong position).


Actual results:
Not able to delete _test from Trash. The underscore ends up in the wrong place in the path.

Expected results:
Trash becoming empty.

Does this happen every time?
yes
