Bug#681198: libgtk-3-0: removal of libgtk-3-0 makes files disappear from libgtk-3-common

[Michael Biebl]

Both libgtk2.0-0 and libgtk-3.0 contain in postrm:


case "$1" in
  purge)
    rm -rf /@CONFDIR@
  ;;
esac


This code was copied from libgtk2.0-0 over to libgtk-3-0.

I can't find the original reason in the changelog / svn log anymore, but
I *think* it was due to the cache files
/etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders and /etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules which
have long been moved elsewhere.

The relevant bug seems to be [1], Loïc possibly still remembers the details.

It seems to me, like we can safely drop those "rm -rf" calls from
postrm. And if not, we should at least move those calls to
libgtk2.0-common resp. libgtk-3-common which nowadays contains the
config files from /etc.
