*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 34247 ***

This might be an important hint.

I have been able to reproduce the bug as follows.

Install edgy. Choose american english in the installation. Use edgy
normally for a few days. Delete a file from a partition other than /, so
that a folder .Trash-username is created on that partition. Let's call
that partition P.

Then, install language support (system -> administration). Install
italian language support. Log out and, in gdm, change the language to
italian before loggin in. When asked if this should be your default
language, choose yes.

Now that you are logged in with the italian language, go to the
partition which we called P, and delete a file with nautilus. Then, with
nautilus, enter the trashcan (menu -> go -> trash, which in italian is
Menu - >Vai -> Cestino). You will notice the trashcan looks empty,
instead of containing the deleted file. Now, with nautilus, show hidden
files and navigate to the .Trash-username folder. The deleted file does
appear there.

So the trashcan bug might be related to localization in some way.
