Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: software-center
I installed the MythTV Frontend and Backend a few days ago from the
Karmic repositories. For a few days, this worked, but I ran into some
MythTV database issues that I couldn't seem to fix. I thought that
uninstalling and reinstalling the software might help. This is where
the problem started... steps to reproduce (steps in parentheses are
probably not essential):
1. Install MythTV frontend in Karmic using the Software Center.
(1a. Configure the Backend using the mythtv-setup command)
(1b. Restart your computer a few times)
2. Uninstall the MythTV frontend using the Software Center. This automatically
uninstalls the backend as well, I think.
(2a. Restart your computer.)
At this point, you would expect MythTV to be gone, but if you run
'mythfrontend' or 'mythtv-setup' from the command line, you can still
run the software. Actually, if I look in my menus, all the icons for
MythTV are still there, and they're still functional. Uninstalling
seemed to do absolutely nothing. If I reinstall it at this point, I
highly doubt it will function like a clean installation, which was my
original goal.
I'm blaming this on software-center because that's visibly what seems to
be the problem. In reality, this could be a problem with MythTV or
dpkg. I have no idea.
