We have already see this problem in the past. This message come from KDE, not digiKam (which do not manage trash as well, it's delegate to desktop)

Which desktop do you use ? KDE or Gnome ?

Gnome

I'm sure, it's a bug from Gnome, not digiKam or KDE. Gnome do not manage trash in the right way and do not pass trash property to KDELibs, which give the error...

I don't know but it is a pain in the ass, and I haven't found any 
solution in the web (manually empty trash files…)

when the problem exist with a Trash directory empty;
it's because the file $HOME/.local/share/Trash/metadata
contains invalid info.

suppress it and you should be ok
