Hi, Relative newbie, been wondering about dselect purge option... I had installed quite a bit of stuff and decided to do a major cleanup since most of my time is on console anyways cause i'm still learning Anyways..in dselect i set all these packages to purge. The thing is that after the purge/remove process has finished i still have quite a lot of dirs like gnome...afterstep...etc etc directories in my regular home dir. And during purging i also see the 'blahblah dir not empty so not removed' message flash by...with dirs outside home.
Is there a way to make dpkg/deselect purge to really purge...as in..dump it all. I guess it is like it is to prevent user placed or app generated files from getting deleted but it is rather annoying that purge doesn't really purge. cheers -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
