I am created this for cca 2 years (sorry, comments in my language). It
takes mount points for block devices, check the Trash-* dirs

That's strange, since "rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty" seemingly
shouldn't remove the directory. I wasn't aware about this, so I tested
it, resp. compared it to "rm -r" [1].
Perhaps you should post the complete script, the culprit seems not to be
"rmdir".

Revisiting a question that I asked in March last year about how to
auto-empty a trash bin.
This has worked very well until today, when on one of my drives it
also deleted the trash bin as well, so my follow-on script to give
me the size of my trash bin failed as there wasn’t a trash bin to
evaluat

May be it is not what you need, but I look at package tmpreaper.

That is expected. atime is not a packa
I'm using 'Dolphin' from KDE as my file manager, that's the only GUI'ness
in usage in this situation! :)
The 'emptytrash' script is called at 1300 each day from cron, giving
plenty of time to leave stuff in the waste bin for future retrieval.
'atime' is not installed as its not in the wheezy rep

Yay!
Thanks, after repopulating .trash with files suitable for deleting, i was
able to test it out. And' find $HOME/.local/share/Trash -type f -mtime

Please say more. It works for me. You say it isn't deleting files
for you. It is possible the permissions will prevent you from
deleting files
I've done some googling, and got it to work using this line 'rm -rf
/home/YOURUSERNAME/.local/share/Trash/files/*' but this just
blanket-empties the trash can without any care for retaining 7
days worth of files.

Thanks for this, and I've tried it out but its still not deleting files, as
I output it to a txt.file which still remain empty.
There is a programme, ported from ubuntu, called 'autotrash' in the repos.
And although I've set it up as per its man page, but its output remains at
zero, and not workin

I'm trying to get a bash script working from a cron job that will empty
trash of all files and directories that are older than $N [7 days in
this case]. This partly works but is very inefficient in that it
doesn't delete everything that is available to be deleted, just tends
to leave stuff with no
