Public bug reported: When emptying the trash (I used the "Empty Deleted Items" button at the top of the file list in Nautilus) a dialog pops up with a progress bar at 0% saying "Preparing". It stays at 0% for the duration of the empty and then disappears when it's done instead of updating.
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Put items in the trash 2. Empty the trash by selecting "Empty" 3. Notice the progress bar is stuck at 0% saying "Preparing" Expected Results: Progress Bar updates as items are thrown away. Actual Results: Nautilus says "Preparing" until the trash is finished being emptied.
