** Description changed: - In Settings--privacy, there is a entry named "Empty trash and temporary - files". but it doesn't work. when I clicked the red button EMPTY TRASH, - the Trash still filled with something. + Impact + ====== + In Settings--privacy, there is a entry named "Empty trash and temporary files". but it doesn't work. when I clicked the red button EMPTY TRASH, the Trash still filled with something. + + Test Case + ========= + Note that this is a two-part fix. You will need the 3.26.2 versions of both gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-control-center. + + 1. Create a sample document with Text Editor and save it to your home folder. + 2. Open the Files app. Select the sample file and press Delete to send it to the Trash. + 3. In the Files sidebar, click Trash to verify that the file is there. + 4. Open the Settings app. + 5. Open the Privacy panel. Click "Purge Trash & Temporary Files". Click "Empty Trash" then confirm "Empty Trash". + 6. The Trash folder in the Files app should be empty now. + + Regression Potential + ==================== + This fix is part of the GNOME 3.26.2 bug fix release. + + The D-Bus method to empty the trash shouldn't be used by anything + besides gnome-control-center. If another app does use that, it will need + to be updated for the new D-Bus address. + + There is a micro-release exception for GNOME: + https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#GNOME
