Details

Description: I have a USB drive with 3 partitions on it, EXT4, FAT32, NTFS and I noticed when I click on a file on the FAT32 or NTFS partition to delete something it creates a hidden directory called; .Trash-1000 and whatever was deleted is moved to this directory, which has 2 sub directories below it called; 'files' & 'info'. files contains what was deleted and the info directory contains a file named with the information of what was deleted and the information of what was deleted on the inside.

This is the name of the info file I just tested this on; 'movie.avi.trashinfo' without the quotes, and this is the contents;

[Trash Info]
Path=Video/movie.avi
DeletionDate=2012-02-05T12:43:38

The problem on the FAT32 & NTFS partitions if that everything gets moved to the 'files' directory and stays there and then you can't just click on the folder and delete it, you have to do this from a terminal to delete the contents which is a pain to have to constantly deal with.

I hope this can be fixed as soon as possible...



Additional info:
* package version(s)

pcmanfm-0.9.10-1

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
Plug in a USB drive with FAT32 & NTFS partitions and delete something, then click pcmanfm to view hidden files to see the .Trash-1000 directory.

I'm attaching a few screen shots you can see this.

Try removing files with Shift+Del shortcut - it's removing files without moving to trash.
Anyway, it's upstream bug, and I'm afraid that upstream is dead or a zombie.
