I'll bet you use something like Nautilus or other graphical 'file
manager', right? On those, deletion isn't implemented as deletion, but
rather what you just stumbled across.

No, I don't.  But it may have snuck onto my system sometime in the
last decade or so.  And been removed again.

I'm a gnome, kde, and now systemd refugee.  I feel at home here on
Devuan.

But there may well be some applications that depend on parts of ght
gnome and kde libraries, and they my well have this dysfunction.  I'm
just wondering what they are.


Personally, I find that bash makes a fabulous file manager, along with
its friends find, awk, sed, cut, etc.

cp, mv, ls, and rm is what I usually use.

On Xfce here, when I right click on a file/directory, I have two options: Move to Trash and Delete. Second option bypasses the Trash bin and sends it to oblivion. I checked my Thunar custom actions and don't see it there so must be set up that way as default.
