[Bug 594674] Re: Trash is not shown on --bind mounted filesystems

[larson.eric.d at gmail.com]

Sure. I use --bind mounts to link working directories on various SSDs to
a common location that gets backed up frequently. The bind mounts are
preferable to symlinks so that backups of the common location (backed up
onto slower HDD storage) execute correctly---traversing symlinks is not
a reasonable option for me since each of those working directories makes
extensive use of symlinks to save space, and dereferencing all of those
would replicate a bunch of data, making backups much slower and data
restores essentially impossible.

In my case, having a bunch of ".Trash-1000"s hiding is problematic. I
work around it currently by making judicious use of "locate" and "find".
For me, just having "delete" direct-delete the files---like what happens
when you delete a file within a symlinked folder on a different FS---
instead of moving them to a ".Trash-1000" folder would be much better,
but I can't speak for everyone on this.

In any case, it looks like Rodrigo Silva also has some relevant comments
in the bugzilla site linked earlier
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=604015).

  Trash is not shown on --bind mounted filesystems

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  I have a secondary partition, mounted at /media/data, from which I
  --bind mount a directory to be my ~/Videos using fstab.

  When I use Nautilus to navigate into ~/Videos and move a file into
  trash (either using Delete or by dragging or whatever), the file
  vanishes, but does not show up when I open Trash from the side panel.
  If I press Ctrl+H to see hidden files I find a ~/Videos/.Trash-1000
  directory, under which the file has been moved.

  Navigating to /media/data/path/Videos and removing the file from there
  moves it under /media/data/.Trash-1000, from where it correctly shows
  up in the trash can.
