Is it a bug?

Apparently so. I was using Gutsy when I posted that. Now I see the
/home/<user>/.local/share/Trash/ entry on Hardy. Interestingly, the way
that found the entry in Gutsy was by going to trash via Nautilus, then
doing a 'locate <filename>' and it found it. In Hardy, locate doesn't
find the file in the trash (/home/<user>/.local/share/Trash/) folder, it
instead finds where it was. For example, I moved the following file to
trash: Protractor1GG2Example.pdf from /home/gg-laptop/tempdir/
On Hardy, if I do a locate, it finds:

~$ locate Protractor1GG2Example.pdf
/home/gg-laptop/tempdir/Protractor1GG2Example.pdf

But if I do:
$ ls /home/gg-laptop/.local/share/Trash/files
Protractor1GG2Example.pdf
the file is there.

Another interesting thing; if I search for the file via Tracker or
Nautilus, the file is not found. However, if I search for the file using
Places|Search the file is found.

Seems to be pretty buggy overall. Note: I just use delete rather than
move to trash most of the time, so this is the first time that I've
messed with it in Hardy.
