I forgot to mention that I've made spacefm the default file manager of my
system.

Double-clicking the trash icon in the desktop screen and then choosing a
file manager to open it results in /home/user being shown, not the trash
directory, regardless if I choose thunar or spacefm.

Please also see the following output:






















*kaye@laptop:~$ sudo dpkg -l "gvfs*"[sudo] password for kaye:
