[Bug 240985] [NEW] KDE Trash works fine only once

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Problems with trash - when I login to my account, and delete something, and then try to empty the Trash, this works fine. However, every subsequent deletion fills the trash, but I can't clear it - the "Empty Trash Bin" option is grayed out. The files physically do exist in the trash, I can see them in .local/share/Trash/info and files directories. I can also navigate to the trash bin in Dolphin, and choose to clear it, and that works fine, even refreshes the icon in the panel (which is not the case with manual console cleaning).
When I reboot the procedure is the same all the time. I am not sure if it happens if I logout-login, but I guess so.
I tried to look this particular bug here but couldn't find the exact same behavior in any of the Trash related bugs listed here.

Expected behavior: to be possible to empty the trash as many times as
I'd like to, unless it's really empty.

The system version (from lsb_release -rd):
Description:    Ubuntu 8.04
Release:        8.04
It is Kubuntu actually, of course.

uname -a:
Linux srujek 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Jun 4 15:10:52 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux - I have the lates kernel from the repos, but this happened before too, I just didn't report it back then as couldn't find any rule (now I know it's the second deletion and cleaning process)

Ask me for any additional information you might need - this is my first
bug report and I'm also new to KDE so I don't actually know what I could
do to be of more help.

Last thing - I love KDE and Ubuntu, so please don't treat me as someone
who just demands everything tip-top and free of charge. When I issue a
bug I have making something very good even better in mind. Peace.
