Trash

I believe using libtrash is a better approach. :o)

shot at desaxe:~$ aptitude show libtrash | grep -A9 ^Descr
Description: A trash can library to use with LD_PRELOAD
 libtrash is a shared library which, when preloaded, implements a trash can
 under GNU/Linux. This way, your mistakes (at least those of the "rm -rf dir /"
 class :-)) will no longer cause the loss of a week's work or your system's
 binaries.

Cheers,
