Description Arnout Boelens 2008-04-08 01:07:53 UTC 
Version:           4:4.0.66+svn791114-3 Debian experimental (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When I delete a file on the desktop, which is in the $HOME/Desktop directory, it is not actually deleted, but shows up again on the next login.

To reproduce:

- Create a file in ~/Desktop using, for example, Dolphin or from the konsole
- Delete it from the desktop by either left clicking or using the applet handler
- Observe how the file is still present in the ~/Desktop directory and reappears after logging off and on.
