I don't think I'll be able to install jaunty soon. I can only confirm that 8.04-LTS (with all latest updates) is affected too.
Easier steps to reproduce (tested at 8.04): 1. $ mkdir -p foo/bar 2. $ touch foo/bar/baz 3. $ chmod -R u-w foo 4. $ chmod u+w foo 5. delete directory `foo' to trash * try to empty trash — `foo' persists, moreover there is no error message. * try to add `write' permission recursively for folder `foo' that is inside of trash — operation fails without any error message * try to add `write' permission to `foo/bar' that is inside of trash — operation fails with message "the action is not supported by the driver" * try to cut/paste `foo' folder from trash to Desktop — operation fails "during copying file to /home/darkk/Desktop/foo.2/bar" with details "Error occured while deleting file: permission denied" so you have two copies of `foo' tree — one in Trash and another one on Desktop (btw, why the file is copied? IMHO, cut and paste should not copy anything) * there is no way to restore `foo' to it's original place to change permissions there, at least I see no relevant commands in context menu. Error messages MAY be inexact — I had to translate them from Russian back to English. -- impossible to clear trash-bin when it contains read-only folders https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330437 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
