Hello Friends!
My system:
Host: laptop
Kernel: 4.19.0-6-amd64 x86_64
bits: 64
Desktop: Xfce 4.12.4
Distro: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
There is a Trash icon on the desktop screen. If I double-click it to open
it so I can view its contents, I get a dialogue box with the title,
*Handler Not Found*
The message of the dialogue box is:
*No network handler is configured for this URL, or no mount command is
set. Add a handler in Devices|Settings|Protocol Handlers.*
I'm too ignorant right now to figure it out. I would appreciate it if
anyone could give a step by step instruction.
Thank you very much!
Can you open Trash in Thunar? If not, try opening a Terminal, quit
Thunar with Close All Windows (or use "thunar -q" as I am not sure quit
works if Thunar is managing your desktop), run "thunar" at the command
line, and look for error messages. You might also see error messages in
~/.xsession-errors .
What gvfs packages do you have installed? See with:
dpkg -l "gvfs*"
Some gvfs-* packages are optional and one might include the handler for
trash: urls.
apt-get dist-upgrade on sid recently tried to remove gvfs-backends
during the python3.8 transition, but you are on buster so should not
have been affected, and I do not think gvfs-backends provides the
handler for trash: urls.
Kind regards,
