I said nothing to contradict that, but it's not the point of the thread. Doing a fresh install is a way to "clean out old release remnants", e.g. stuff you installed and forgot about, but doing it to remove old dot-files is ridiculous. Presumably you have a backup of your home directory which you are going to restore after the fresh install, so what do you gain? Absolutely nothing. [BTW, not quoting the part of a message you want to comment on is nearly as bad as top-posting. Some might even say it's worse. I had to go search in old mail to recall what I had said about this topic]. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
