[Bug 494082] [NEW] no Trash folder for root user

[sefs]

Public bug reported:

This bug is not new to karmic i have seen it in jaunty but it never
bother me until now.

This is a fresh install of Karmic from the Alternate CD

There is NO root user trash folder.

That is, /root/.local/share/Trash does not exist.

If i launch nautilus with the gksudo command I get this error...

***
The folder contents could not be displayed.
Sorry, could not display all the contents of "trash": Operation not supported
***

Browsing via the terminal does not reveal a  /root/.local/share/Trash

Unto my problem...
Where do delete files go when deleted in nautilus when nautilus is launched with gksudo.

I deleted a sizable file but the diskspace was not returned to me from
this deleted file which means it is still on the disk, I know not where.

Can someone tell me where to look.

Thanks.
