Description mchugh19@yahoo.com 2005-05-21 23:52:37 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

Testcase:
 Trash a directory containing anything
 In the trash can enter the directory, select an item, and hit the delete key

Error reported: 
 "Access denied to trash:/0-dir/file"

I would be cool if it were capable of deleting inside trashed directories, but as it stands it only spits back that error.

Thanks you all do great work.

Changing its severity to "wishlist" since the current behavior is exactly
what was intended.

Maybe the error message could be more explicit.

Anyway, I'd prefer to see the current behavior not changing (except for the error message maybe) since I consider the "everything in the trash is frozen" like the right thing to do.

Hmm. My code indeed intended to forbid this, but now I can't think of a good reason why. Imagine you trashed a folder with a 1GB movie and a number of small text files. Then you want to restore the text files, but not the movie...

I think I should make it possible to delete files from a trashed dir, indeed.

Works for me in KDE Frameworks 5.45.
