Bug description

When I try to reshare a file on c.nc.com I see a spinner for ever. When I reload the browser I get a error message that the file couldn't be shared by the new recipient is now in the list.

If I want to unshare it again nothing happens at all when I click on "delete share"

Steps to reproduce
  1. Try to re-share a file which was shared with your on c.nc.com
  2. You see a endless spinner on the "Share" button
  3. After reload the new recipient is in the share list
  4. Now try to unshare it again
  5. Clicking on "delete share" gets completely ignored
Expected behavior

Re-sharing should be super fast without an error. It is "just" a entry in our share table and maybe in the activity table for three users (owner, person who reshared, recipient)
