[Bug 12893] Re: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices
I was asking "what solution was used?" because I can't really find out if my suggestion was considered. Do not create /.Trash-$USER directories but $USER directories in /.Trash and only if that directory exists. So, the user chooses if he/she/it wants a trash by creating /.Trash or not when formating or with a utility. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12893 Title: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/12893/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This bug is more than 10 years old, and all the other projects are marked as Fix Released, so I just closed the last one (Baltix). If you think it's still an issue and worth investigating, feel free to reopen the bug. If this is the case, I suggest you reopen the bug in the upstream bug tracker, where the development actually occurs. I'm sure if you work on a patch, they'll be more than happy to review it and consider merging.

[Bug 12893] Re: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices
Тhere is on the other hand a high number of discussions of guys now trying to make a volume trash. The solution looks very simple to me. Instead of automatically creating .Trash- directories with possible permission problems to do so, make it a partition formatting user option to create a trash (term he understands) and then create drwxrwxrwtroot root.Trash Note the sticky bit t. If .Trash exists when deleting a file, a trash subdirectory is created without permission problem. It might be easier to see a per volume trash than display by list sorted by original location. Ejecting the volume may indeed offer to empty the trash, but only of the ejected volume. It's even recommended if the volume is liable to be mounted on another system with different uids. Trash creation/removal may of course occur after formatting as a Nautilus function. I notice that the Trash applet does not see the volume trash of the boot partition when its /home is a symbolic link to the mount point of a volume. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12893 Title: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/12893/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 12893] Re: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices
What people seems to not understand it's that it's counter-intuitive to pretend that a user must be aware of the destination of it's removed files and moreover that it doesn't free its key space as expected. When you delete files, there are two reasons: the file is useless + you don't have enough storage. This is particulary true on removable storage which have fewer space than HDD. So, no, getting a trash on the key is not a solution, and asking for user to empty their unknown trash neither. We need to start from the real need of a trash. It is for give the user the ability to undo its deletion. Do this undo must really last when the key is removed? Perhaps it depends on the size of the removable storage: a removable HDD is more expected to have a trash than a small flash key. The only problem in fact from the start of this bugreport is that we don't even have the choice to have or not to have a trash folder on our media. This choice has been made a day and keep plagging everyday use of number of users without any settings to prevent this behavior (system wide or media specific setting). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12893 Title: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/12893/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

True. I would at least suggest the way, that everyone can choose to have a trash or not have a trash on removable devices. If it's so hard to implement this, then at least ASK the user when ejecting, if one wants to empty the trash. Or... if the user wants to copy files on the removable device and there is not enough space, because of the files in the trash, then ASK, if trash should be opened. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12893 Title: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/12893/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 12893] Re: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices
Workaround - create blank files on the removable drive named .Trash-1000, .Trash-1001, and so on as needed. Since it cant create a folder because a file already exists with the same name, it asks if it can permanently delete. At least this worked for me with a FAT32 SD card.

[Bug 12893] Re: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices
The fix from upstream is that the user is prompted to emtpy the trash when the drive is unmounted. This fix is in Karmic, but a big problem is that this dialog is not triggered when ejecting a drive in Nautilus, only when unmounting. In Nautilus ejecting is the default action, unmounting is only accessible through a context menu. Most users therefore probably never encounter this dialog. The obvious fix (to me) would be to also trigger the dialog on eject, not only on unmount (Although I really don't know the difference between these two actions). -- Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12893 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Just for the record, Windows Vista keeps deleted files on flash drives in a hidden folder called $Recycle.bin (or something to that effect), and the main Recycle Bin icon on the user's desktop then shows that it has something in it. Windows' behavior has one other benefit: you can set maximum sizes for these for different types of storage - for example, you could set a 2GB maximum on the local recycle bin, but a 512MB maximum on any remote recycle bins. -- Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12893 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Joel, That is true. But when the disk is full because of the trash, and the user wants to put something on it, looks like Windows Vista automatically empties or transfer the trash, so the user don't notice that the trash was there taking some space. In Ubuntu, it will only say that the drive is full, even if there is nothing in it but trash (that is not visible to the average user). So it's really weird, the drive appears as clean, but there is no space on it.

I personnally don't think it's a good idea at all to move files from a removable device to ~/.Trash. Moving big files from USB1.0 cameras can be really long and annoying. Also, imho it just doesn't make sense to transfer files to another device when the user really wants to delete them. There has to be some more creative way to manage this. Quick idea: maybe a delay could be put on the delete dialog when the files are on a removable device such as camera or usb stick.

I mailed upstream with some questions on the best place to hack that change but didn't get a reply yet and I prefer to get their opinion before doing that change -- Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices https://launchpad.net/bugs/12893 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This behavious has been changed. Trash is now moved to the $USER .Trash directory.

Duncan: Perhaps you have misunderstood the bug. The bug still exists -- a .Trash-$USER directory is still created on removable devices such as USB flash drives when Move to wastebasket is used on a file on that drive. -- Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices https://launchpad.net/bugs/12893 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 12893] Re: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices
This isn't just confusing for people coming from OS X and Win32, but also for Ubuntu users who plug their drives into those machines, because now there is some mysterious .Trash folder and they don't have the amount of space they thought they did. A lot of people move presentations and such through pen drives, and although they may author it on an Ubuntu machine they are very likely going to be presenting on a Windows one. Because the windows recycle bin doesn't obey the .Trash spec, emptying the recycle bin doesn't free up the space on the pen drive either. So even how to empty the 'trash' for the pen drive is going to be inconsistent if it stays this way. It's also probably a bad idea because most pen drives are flash based and have a limited number of writes. Creating .Trash and the file moves cause extra, uneeded writes. -- Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices https://launchpad.net/bugs/12893 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
