Public bug reported: Expected: After removing apache2 via 'apt remove --purge ^apache2*' all files and directory should be purged from the system.
What happend: After purging of apache2 /etc/apache2 still exists. The only file, that still exists is within /etc/apache2 is: /etc/apache2/conf-available/javascript-common.conf This probably prevents the removal of /etc/apache2 Reproduce: fresh install Ubuntu bionic apt update apt install apache2 apt remove --purge ^apache2* ls /etc/apache2 Versions: System: Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS Release: 18.04 Codename: bionic Apache: Package: apache2 Version: 2.4.29-1ubuntu4.6 Priority: optional Section: web Origin: Ubuntu Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <[email protected]> Original-Maintainer: Debian Apache Maintainers <[email protected]> Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug ** Affects: apache2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - apt purge apache2 doesn't deletes /etc/apache2 + apt purge apache2 doesn't delete /etc/apache2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server/Client Support Team, which is subscribed to apache2 in Ubuntu.
