Public bug reported:

Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Minor
       Priority: Low
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
Binary package hint: nautilus

Step by step description:

1. I want to delete a link on HD1 to a directory on HD2 by choosing the
link and pressing [Delete].

2. I receive the following error message:

Error "Not on the same file system" while deleting [path]". Would you
like to continue?

[Cancel] [Retry]

[Cancel] is OK, however [Retry] is inconsistent since even after a
million retries, the link will not be deleted. I would expect that I can
delete the link, in particiular logged in as root.

** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu)
     Severity: Normal => Minor
     Priority: None => Low
