Package: x2goclient Version: 4.0.0.3
when uninstalling x2goclient, the .x2go folder which is in the user space (in windows-XP C:\Docs&Sets\username\.x2go)is not deleted!!! I think the uninstall process should delete folder also. (maybe related with Bug#224)
Deleting stuff from user directories is a bad idea and should not be done. Please think of multi-user setups on the same machine. A user might have an individual copy of x2goclient.exe somewhere (there's no requirement to install x2goclient, it can be run as a portable/stand-alone application) and you'd delete that user's settings with a system-wide purge of all "C:\Documents and Settings\*\.x2go" directories. This is not what you want.
Also think about multi-machine setups with central user directories and/or roaming profiles. Deleting x2go on one machine doesn't mean its gone on all machines the user-directory is accessed from.
And deleting stuff from the users dirs is generally no good idea. Might be something is borked with the install, so the user deinstalls and reinstalls. That doesn't mean he want to loose all his settings and profiles for x2go...
Considering the two comments from Arnold and Stefan above, I will
close this bug and tag it as ,,won't fix''.
Best, Mike
