When unmounting a removable drive, one is asked whether the trash shall
be emptied. Afterwards, a directory `.Trash-$UID` with the (empty)
directories files/ and info/, is left over.
IMHO this should be removed as well. It is just unneccessary, clutters
the disk, especially on other operating systems, where it is not hidden.

PS: I'm not sure about the package, please correct that if I'm wrong.
Thanks!

Hey Marian,

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

Yes, I reproduced it with nautilus 3.12.2 (on arch)

Maybe this should be reported upstream, but as I'm not sure about the
package, may someone give me a hint which tool is responsible for this?

Hey Marian,

I am reassigning this bug to gvfs, maybe you should report it to gvfs's
upstream.

thanks
