Whatever the problem was, it has now, following a reboot, disappeared (on all
filesystems that I've tried).
I'm not sure whether that's good or not.
If it recurs, I'll try to do some reasonable investigation before posting what
I find here.
Just for background, I have quite a few filesystems mounted, each with its own
trash; a typical entry in the .trashrc file looks like this:
----
[/tmp/.Trash-1000]
Days=7
FixedSize=500
FixedSizeUnit=2
LimitReachedAction=1
Percent=1
SizeLimitType=0
UseSizeLimit=true
UseTimeLimit=false
----
and autotrash is run daily (overnight) with the parameters (for the above
filesystem):
-d 35 -T "/tmp/.Trash-1000"
/tmp is never cleared on boot.
All filesystems are treated the same way as /tmp: the same .trashrc entry and
autotrash parameters, just with different mounted names for the trash directory.
Anyway, if it happens again, I'll be back with more info.
