Hello Friends! My system: Host: laptop Kernel: 4.19.0-6-amd64 x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: Xfce 4.12.4 Distro: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) There is a Trash icon on the desktop screen. If I double-click it to open it so I can view its contents, I get a dialogue box with the title, *Handler Not Found* The message of the dialogue box is: *No network handler is configured for this URL, or no mount command is set. Add a handler in Devices|Settings|Protocol Handlers.* I'm too ignorant right now to figure it out. I would appreciate it if anyone could give a step by step instruction. Thank you very much!
Can you open Trash in Thunar? If not, try opening a Terminal, quit Thunar with Close All Windows (or use "thunar -q" as I am not sure quit works if Thunar is managing your desktop), run "thunar" at the command line, and look for error messages. You might also see error messages in ~/.xsession-errors .
What gvfs packages do you have installed? See with: dpkg -l "gvfs*"Some gvfs-* packages are optional and one might include the handler for trash: urls.
apt-get dist-upgrade on sid recently tried to remove gvfs-backends during the python3.8 transition, but you are on buster so should not have been affected, and I do not think gvfs-backends provides the handler for trash: urls.
