Comment 9 for bug 30842

Quote:
"Happened again. Trash said it was empty, but there was a bunch of stuff in ~/.local/Trash/files. Deleting the files with konqueror puts them right back, and makes the trash can full. Emptying it has no effect on the files."

To permenately delete a file, select it and then press shift-delete. Instead of making sure you want to move it to the trash, it asks if you would like to delete it.
