Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Steps to reproduce:

 - make sure rhythmbox scans your collection for new files (or make it scan manually)
 - go to my library -> import errors
 - here you see your 'test.txt' file..
 - right click .. move to trash
 - notice that it gets copied to trash, instead of moved

Thank you for your bug. That works fine on my feisty desktop. Do you have that file on a different partitions than your user directory?

When I try it now, it actually works.
Perhaps its related to the bug about dbus not working after you login in again?

Anyways, it was a file on the same partition. It was actually a readme file that are found in the .torrents I downloaded from Jamendo. (the cc-liscenced music repository)

I will download one again to test this again. Maybe its very file or permission specific. I will also try without dbus running (read: logout and login again).

I've downloaded another album from Jamendo, which again contained this readme files and was able to reproduce this error.

It consists of two bugs, possibly related:

1. These plain text documents are flagged as 'import errors'. The specific error I get is: "This stream is of a different type than handled by this element"

2. I am not able to throw these documents into the trash. These problematic files get _copied_ to the trash, not moved. Even though an empty MP3, which is correctly flagged as an import error, can be moved to the trash. I say copied, because the file will remain at its original location, yet an identical copy is also put in the trash.

After trying out lots of stuff, I can say it has to do with the line-endings in the plain-text readme files.

- These bugs remain if I change the filename or path
- These bugs go away when I remove the line-endings
- These bugs stay away when I add the line-endings by pressing [enter] in gedit

Given all these observations, it has to be related to line-endings. I know there is a difference between how unix and dos/windows handle line-endings in text-files, but I'm not really familiar with the specifics, so I can't 'detect' this myself.

To reproduce this bug, please place attachment in a folder rhythmbox is monitoring. It will be flagged as an import error (which is a bug), and then when you move it to the trash, it will be copied to the trash, not moved.

I still can't imagine how the trash-bug is related to file-endings through: it seems very unlikely.
