Description

When running as 'root' , if you attempt to create the 'trash' applet on a panel, you will receive the following notification: "Failed to connect to the Trash: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.xfce.FileManager. Timeout was reached." Occurs on both Slackware-current and Arch Linux distributions. With Slackware-current, it occurs in both 32 and 64 bit versions. It has been tested on Ryzen 7, AMD-FX8350, and Intel i7 architectures. It appears to be Thunar-related, in that the problem didn't show up in -current, until Thunar 1.8.2 was introduced Thunar Version: 1.8.2 thunar-volman: 0.8.1 xfce4-panel:4.12.2

Version: 1.8.2
