Don't send me to ...
If you create a text file on the desktop and then you send it to trash, this unexpected behavior will occur.
I thought this had been fixed. It's nothing critical but you know ... I can't take it to businesses and tell them to donate to the project.
@rikmills Can you replicate this? It only occurs after fresh install, then it goes away. Very annoying nonetheless. I can upload a video capturing it, if necessary. Please tell me how can I help on this one.
Can confirm. :(
If I kill and restart plasmashell the behavior stops happening.
Can you please file an upstream bug report and attach a screen recording? Thanks!
Actually, cannot reproduce in Neon.
I recall some changes in Plasma 5.13 to improve the Trash-on-Desktop situation, so it may have already been fixed upstream. Let me dig...
This was fixed upstream with https://cgit.kde.org/plasma-workspace.git/commit/?id=ee48796ec5561f540ed8b328a302e44b4364a234
That change went into 5.13, so we will need to either wait for Plasma 5.13 or backport the fix to 5.12.
It does seem like a somewhat important bug to fix given that we ship with a Trash on the desktop by default. Recommend backporting the fix, @rikmills. The diff is pretty small and comprehensible.
FWIW I *can* reproduce this on Neon with Plasma 5.13.2, which should already have the fix you linked to. But I had to create a *new* Activity to trigger the bug (was not triggered in existing Activities).
If I kill and restart plasmashell the behavior stops happening.
It only happens once. After fresh install. After reboot it never shows again. Which is consistent with what you're saying.
Yeah, I had to create a new account to get it to happen. If this happens in Neon too, it's not Kubuntu-specific, so let's track the upstream bug report instead. Thanks everyone!
Side note: I really wish Phabricator had more resolution statuses. "Invalid" isn't, well, valid, but there's nothing more appropriate...
