[Bug 277929] Re: Picard.conf not purged when package completely removed via Synaptic
Thanks for your reply. It was my misconception that I could restore the default settings through Synaptic but evidently this is not possible. The development of a button to clear out any erroneous settings would be good but only fixes the problem in the case of picard. Surely numerous other packages are affected by the retention of old or bad data in one's /home profile(?)

[Bug 277929] Re: Picard.conf not purged when package completely removed via Synaptic
Packages should not delete personal configuration settings on uninstallation. This would be very bad behaviour. The suggested "restore defaults" button could be useful, there is already an upstream feature request for this (see linked bug above). ** Bug watch added: MusicBrainz Bug Tracker #1480 http://bugs.musicbrainz.org/ticket/1480 ** Also affects: picard via http://bugs.musicbrainz.org/ticket/1480 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- Picard.conf not purged when package completely removed via Synaptic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277929 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
