Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: app-install-data-commercial
If I install app-install-data-commercial and then remove it again, the
non-free applications that it added to the list of Add/Remove
Applications are still visible.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Boot with the Ubuntu 8.04.1 Desktop live CD.
2) Start a terminal.
3) Execute 'sudo apt-get update'.
4) Execute 'gnome-app-install'. Select "Third party applications": there are no
applications in the list. Close the window.
5) Execute 'ls -l /usr/share/app-install/desktop/acroread.desktop'. It says "No
such file or directory".
6) Execute 'sudo aptitude install app-install-data-commercial'.
7) Start 'gnome-app-install' again. "Third party applications" now shows a list
of non-free programs, like Adobe Reader 9. Close the window.
8) Execute 'ls -l /usr/share/app-install/desktop/acroread.desktop'. The file
exists now.
9) Execute 'sudo aptitude --purge remove app-install-data-commercial'.
10) Execute 'ls -l /usr/share/app-install/desktop/acroread.desktop'. It says
"No such file or directory".
11) Execute 'gnome-app-install'. It still shows the same lists of non-free
programs. Close the window.
12) Execute 'ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/'. It doesn't list the file
hardy-partner.list because you haven't clicked any of the checkboxes by the
non-free applications.
13) Execute 'sudo update-app-install'.
14) Start 'gnome-app-install' again. It no longer shows any entries in "Third
party applications".
I expected to not see any applications in "Third party applications" in
step 11.
