or some other fucked up casing
auto installing in the home directory is like walking into someone’s house and putting your feet up on their table. so rude.
I’ve seen some programs put their shit in
~/Documents
which is even worse.Windows vibes
This nonsense is why I’ve never set my XDG_HOME_DIRS to their actual values. A convenient button in file browsers isn’t worth the intrusion.
I’d like to know which one is creating /.Trash-1000. Yes, at the root folder. No, I don’t have any other OS installed in this system but linux
You should be able to set a watch using the Linux Audit system (which
home-watcher
also uses). Try something like thissudo auditctl -w /.Trash-1000 -p rwxa -k trash_monitor
You should then be able to search for events in the logs with
sudo ausearch -k trash_monitor
The kde default explorer dolphin does.
It creates them at the root of separate partitions (or maybe only network mounts).
Basically as a fallback to moving it slowly into a local trash.You probably have the system mounted elsewhere and are accessing it remotely with dolphin would be my guess.
Last time I encountered it I found no good solution, it’s very anyoing.
Best workaround is to create a file of the same name as the folder, that way at least it stays empty.
Nice, I’ve wanted something like this many times now.
