Bug Description

Binary package hint: baobab

Disk Usage Analyzer does not update the top status line "Total filesystem capacity: xx (Used: xx Available xx)" when you click Refresh.

Steps to reproduce:
Open baobab
Click Scan Filesystem, wait for it to finsh
Go delete/add some files
Click Refresh in baobab
Used/Available numbers have not changed.

I think these numbers should actually just be updated in real time without even having to click refresh or to rescan your filesystem

Using Ubuntu 7.10, Baobab 2.20.0.1

I can confirm this bug in Hardy Beta.

In my opinion, the status line should be in sync with the listing to avoid confusion. So either both should remain static (as they are meant to now), or both should be dynamic and update in real-time. Last mentioned is probably a new feature request though.

If you just delete files (without removing them from Trash), the total file system used space remains the same.

Please confirm.
