Binary package hint: eog
Using Ubuntu 8.04, eog cannot move images to the waste basket, or delete them, when they are on a mounted partition different from the one in which the user has their home folder.
Pressing delete throws an error message "Error on deleting image [image]; Couldn't access Deleted Items folder."
This behaviour has been described many times before, starting over 2 years ago (see bugs 42571, 214598 and 263581 and duplicates). The error in eog has apparently been fixed, with all these bugs marked as 'Fix Released', and the current behaviour is unrelated. The new bug apparently lies in 'gio', but the end result is unchanged from the end-user's perspective. This is the new bug requested - see discussion in bug 42571, at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eog/+bug/42571
thank you for your bug report, the issue seems to be an upstream one, could you open it on bugzilla.gnome.org?
