I don't see this as a bug. Freevo creates a lot of files (configurations, TV recordings ) inside /home/freevo, using the freevo ID. If somebody installs freevo, deinstalls it, and reinstalls it, it makes sense that those files must be again owned by 'freevo'. If the uid and gid were removed, some other user may end up using them and be given access to that material. a. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
