trash-empty --trash-dir=[/path/to/.Trash]
说明
trash-empty is part of the trash-cli suite and permanently removes files from the trash. Without arguments it empties all trashed files. When given a number of days, only files trashed earlier than that threshold are removed, allowing periodic clean-up via cron while keeping recent items recoverable. It operates on the standard FreeDesktop.org trash locations, including per-user and per-volume trash directories.
