[Bug 40192] when emptying the trash you get a fake permission error message

[Corsaire01]

Public bug reported:

Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
when the trash is empty and you wish to empty it :
-do a right-click on it
-select 'Empty Trash'
-validate the Warning message about destroying all the trash content

then you get a message saying : 
"file" cannot be deleted because you don't have permission to modify its parent directory.  (translated from french)

if you click on 'retry' you will get this message in circles, but
pressing 'cancel' closes the error message and the trash was really
emptyed...

first this statement is false :

stranche at gallion:~$ ls -ndl .
drwx------ 83 1000 1000 8192 2006-04-19 19:19 .
stranche at gallion:~$ ls -ndl .Trash/
drwx------ 2 1000 1000 4096 2006-04-19 19:20 .Trash/

as you can see my HOME directory and the .Trash folder shares the same
uid/gid informations.

If this can be a hint, my home was reused several times at distro
version changes, the /home is in a proper disk partition and is not re-
formated every time, however until now there were never been any
trouble.
