Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
My hard disk was full. I tried to free some space by emptying trash
through nautilus. I got a progress bar which didn't show any progress
and disappeared. No files were deleted. I tried it a few times like a
robot (just trying to make the bug report more interesting), I got the
same result.
Emptying the trash with the trash icon near the bottom right panel
showed more promising behavior. The progress bar indeed looked to
deleting files. But the result it same. Nothing got cleaned.
Finally I used commandline to delete the trash.

I had transmission running at that time, which complained of disk being
full. I had scribus editor with a small ruby program which complained
about the failure while saving the file.
Please let me know in case you need additional information.
