Ran across the issue in lucid 10.04. Could not delete a picture from a different partition in the same harddrive (NTFS-formatted). The drive is mounted so that my user account has read/write access to it.

Workaround: Made a .Trash-1000 folder manually to the partition root directory (my UID is 1000). Now the error message changed to a warning message, but I could delete the picture. The warning message is: "A wastebasket for (IMGNAME) couldn't be found. Do you want to remove this image permanently?"

The bug could still use patching, since by the original error messages "Are you sure you want to move (IMGNAME) to the Deleted Items folder?" and "Error on deleting image (IMGNAME) - Couldn't access Deleted Items folder." aren't too informative in creating the workaround folder to say, an external SD-stick while browsing newly taken pictures.
