Upon creating symbolic links, links remove can only happen using the terminal.
The link is created on the Desktop, while the current files is loacted on another partition (FAT32)
* Impacted ubuntu version :
Gusty Gibbon (7.10), only the french version have been tested
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "desktop_window", "Nautilus"
* Simulation :
create a link on the desktop
cd ~/Bureau
ln -s /media/
then try to remove the symoblic links using nautilus. The error occurs using explicitly Nautilus or within the desktop window
* Available solution
rm <link_name> # the only one available : using the (gnome-)terminal
