Bug ID: 375917
Summary: Dialog for confirming deletion could indicate if a
directory is not empty
Product: dolphin
Version: 16.08.3
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: zi...@kayari.org
Target Milestone: ---
When deleting directories in Dolphin it would be useful if the confirmation
dialog indicated whether something is a directory rather than a file, and also
distinguish between empty directories and non-empty directories.
Currently you only see the name of the directory, and no indication of how many
other files inside that directory (if any) might be deleted. If the item being
deleted is a directory and has any contents (except . and .. of course) the
dialog could tell you that (it doesn't need to list them all, just show that
there's *something* inside the directory).
This would be analogous to using rmdir on the command-line. If I want to remove
a directory only if it's empty I would not use 'rm -r' I would use 'rmdir',
because it would fail if it's not empty.
