Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: digikam

I am using digikam version 0.8.2-2ubuntu1 in Ubuntu (Gnome based). I
tried to delete a picture and got an error message saying "could not
rename file FILENAME" (where FILENAME was the name of the file it was
trying to delete).

I looked around and found this bug report on KDE's site:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123120

In the comments on the bug, someone advises to link ~/.Trash to
~/Desktop/Trash. Doing so solves the problem, and deleting the file is
possible.

I am assuming that this is because KDE (and Kubuntu) uses
~/Desktop/Trash as the trashcan, while Gnome (and Ubuntu) uses ~/.Trash.

Can the program be tweaked to look for the trash in either place?
