Hi! At time of writing, applying the patch results in moving the desktop file/folder to trash, but no difference with **shift+delete** (it also moves the file to the trash)
To apply the patch intermediately instead of waiting to the release of the updated package, you can follow this steps. If you followed https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues/158 #alternative-solution, you may need these extra steps: - rm ~/.config/autostart/nemo-autostart-with-gnome.desktop - sudo apt-get purge nemo - sudo apt autoremove -y - sudo apt install --reinstall gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons Then edit this two files: - In a terminal: sudo nautilus - Navigate to /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/desktop-icons@csoriano/ - Open createFolderDialog.js with gedit or similar - Copy/Paste https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/ShellExtensions/desktop-icons/-/raw/8ba06e3f456e211dfeace27bb27221cd375b65de/createFolderDialog.js - Open desktopGrid.js with gedit or similar - Copy/Paste https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/ShellExtensions/desktop-icons/-/raw/8ba06e3f456e211dfeace27bb27221cd375b65de/desktopGrid.js Restart and you're done! ** Bug watch added: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues #158 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues/158 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1844808 Title: Can't delete file from desktop by clicking it and hitting delete key To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons/+bug/1844808/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
