For some reason I can not recall I went into my Trash bin on Fedora. There was unsurprisingly a lot of trash!
I decided to empty the Trash bin but it only succeeded partially. I had a DVD directory that did not want to be deleted. Looking closer at the message it was a permissions error. Not sure how though, since if I did not have permissions to delete the directory from the Trash bin, how on Earth could I have moved it into the Trash bin to start with…!
Looking around my home directory in the terminal I could not locate the exact spot to manually remove the directory. As always Google came to assistance and brought up a nice forum topic about how to empty the Trash bin in Fedora from the terminal.
The simplest way would be to run the following command as root:
rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/files/*
