first of all i am not sure if this nautilus bug or something else.

i have .CACHE directory in my home dir, with all temporary and cache
stuff, so if i want to copy config files i may do this fast without copying
unneccessary files (all directories with cache and temp files of various apps
have been replaced by symlink to the .CACHE dir)

same i did with trash: ~/.local/share/Trash points to ~/.CACHE/Trash as a
symbolic link. after i did the symbolic link i have discovered, that trash
icon on my desktop no longer shows files in ~/.local/share/Trash

so if i delete something from my home dir, it is moved to ~/.CACHE/Trash/files,
but it never could be removed permanently by 'Empty Trash'.

Hey Mark,

this is an old bug.

Could you please still reproduce this issue with newer nautilus version
like 3.4.2-1+build1 or 3.8.2-3 ?

thanks

still persists in nautilus 3.4.2-1+build1

Hello,
I confirm this bug still exists in nautilus 3.14.1-2 (debian jessie)

For information, I've this configuration:
- an hdd mounted at /home
- .local, .config, .mozilla, .icedove are on a ssd and monted in
respective folders in home.

Like that, trashing files in home fails because of cross-device
(.local/share/Trash not in same device)
So I symlinked .local/share/Trash back to ~/.trash

Trashing files works perfectely (files are found in .trash/files and
.trash/info)

But the nautilus trash (trash:///) shows nothing at all, and so no Empty
Trash

Regards
Alex

May be more a bug in gvfs than in nautilus ?
the command "$gvfs-ls trash:// " outputs nothing at all

Package: gvfs
Version: 1.22.2-1
