Title: add an option to autodelete items from trash:/ after a specified span of time Status in KDE Base: Fix Released Status in Nautilus: Fix Released Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in kdebase package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: It would be good to have an expire kind of option for the Trash folders in [K]ubuntu. In the current mode, the Trash folder is useless. Users will either do a Shift + Delete or Delete + Empty Trash. If an expiry option is provided, it'll help a lot. An example: I use the laptop running Kubuntu. I take backups almost daily onto an external HDD. If I go with the current mode, when I delete, I do: * Shift + Delete or * Delete + Empty Trash. In both cases a backup of the data is no more available. If you implement the feature I'm requesting for, I'd do it in the following way. * Set Trash Item Expire to 15 days. * Throw unneeded items to Trash and forget. * In 1-2 days, they'd get backed-up to my external HDD * On the 15th day, they'd be _deleted_ Whoops......... I need that data back. No problem. I still must be having it in my backup HDD. Please, add this feature.
