But again, my question still remains un-answered : is the binary xdg-trash really needed? > Nilesh, I checked with upstream of Amfora and the xdg-trash binary is not used.

I've made a few changes (fixing up changelog, adding metadata) and re-pushed xdg to mentors and salsa if you could please review. https://mentors.debian.net/package/golang-github-rkoesters-xdg/ https://salsa.debian.org/go-team/packages/golang-github-rkoesters-xdg Thank you, -- Micheal Waltz https://keybase.io/ecliptik GPG Fingerprint: 5F70 F2AC BD58 F580 DF15 3D1F 4FA2 70F5 CD36 71F9
