[Bug 269441] Re: Trash always full

[thom]

I can confirm that this bug is still in ubuntu-mate (version 19.10).

when unmounting external drives without emptying trash, the trash icon
stays on "full" forever (until the next login)

Expected behaviour would be a re-evaluation of the trash state of the
mounted devices after any mount/unmount of any drive

This papercut has reached the respectable age of 11 years which, of
course, is getting a bit embarrassing. :-)

I don't know where the trashcan code hides (somewhere in caja ?)
I might try to give it a shot if I knew more. Tips anyone ?
