Comment 6 for bug 218722

Trashcan Widget in KDE 4.1 works fine for me with the one exeption, that when I chose to empty the Trashcan, the Icon is not changed to an empty trashcan.

When I move one more/new item to the trash and than (in Dolphin) choose to restore it, the widget's icon is up to date now again (as empty).

Seems as if that could have someting to do with the above mentioned issues...
