Hello,
On my Debian Lenny, I am unable to empty the trash because of
permission problems. For example, I have a .jar file, and when I
choose to "Empty Trash," I receive:
"Error while deleting.
"/home/merci...4-1131.jar" cannot be deleted because you do not have
permissions to modify its parent folder."
Where is the trash folder located in my /home/?
Thanks.

Thanks for your answers. It must be obvious, but how do you empty the
trash in a terminal? Do I have to delete the specified folder (if
any)?
Thanks.

if you *really* have to:
$ cd ~/.local/share/Trash/files
$ ls
$ rm -fr *
... that is, what you posted before, I don't think there's a special
command.
You may put that in a script if you like the idea (remember to check
that chdir succeeds...), but if I were you I'd try to fix the permission
problem: does it happen with every file? can you reproduce it with a new
file? If yes - what are the permissions of ~/.local/share/Trash? and so on
