Hi Aron, The file that needs to be removed is 80im-switch, isn't it? debian/postinst in the im-config package contains code that normally removes 80im-switch.
However, it's only removed if its md5sum matches one of the md5sums listed in debian/postinst. In https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im- config/0.19ubuntu1 I added the md5sum for the modified file that the solution to bug 875435 resulted in. So as far as I know, this should work. The case when 80im-switch is not removed is if you have made your own modifications to the file. Could that possibly be the reason why you have encountered a problem? ** Changed in: im-switch (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to im-switch in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1101836 Title: Needs to keep hands off when removed but not purged Status in “im-switch” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: In raring, we are replacing im-switch with im-config, but when im- switch isn't purged but only removed, scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ will still try to set related variables, so that im-config cannot work correctly. Fixing im-switch in Precise and Quantal is part of the solution to this problem, something else must be done for those who haven't got the chance to upgrade to the fixed version.
