Description mongoose11235813 2015-09-25 16:27:57 UTC
In the Unity (the default desktop for the Ubuntu) there is a trash icon on the launcher panel. Clicking it opens a URL "trash:" in the preferred file manager, but the Dolphin doesn't recognize this URL, it expects "trash:/" instead.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Ubuntu
2. Install Dolphin
3. Set Dolphin to be the preferred file manager (using exo-preferred-applications)
4. Click trash icon at the bottom of the application launcher.

Actual Results:  
I get a "Malformed URL trash://" message

Expected Results:  
I expect it to open the trash

1. I found a hack to workaround this bug: I set a script that fixes the trash URL before passing it to the Dolphin as my preferred "file manager".
2. It's still very annoying. Is it possible to fix this properly or do Ubuntu and KDE have incomparable URL formats?
3. It can also be a bug in Unity, but the default Ubuntu's file manager (Nautilus) recognizes this URL.
4. The same happens in konqueror

To clarify: "The same happens in konqueror" means that the konqueror suffers the same problem as Dolphin.

Thanks for the bug report, I can reproduce the problem.

I will reassign it to KIO trash ioslave.
