Hello,
I'm talking about Klik on this week's GNU/Linux User Show. I installed Kid3 (an MP3 tagger) and it worked just fine. However, it asked me for my root password after the download and then when I was done with it and deleted the CMG, I was left with this list of files on my system:
/mnt/app/1/usr/bin/kid3
/mnt/app/1/usr/share/apps/kid3
/mnt/app/1/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/de/kid3
/mnt/app/1/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kid3
/mnt/app/1/usr/share/doc/kid3
/mnt/app/2/usr/bin/kid3
/mnt/app/2/usr/share/apps/kid3
/mnt/app/2/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/de/kid3
/mnt/app/2/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kid3
/mnt/app/2/usr/share/doc/kid3
/tmp/klik/kid3
/tmp/klik/kid3/usr/bin/kid3
/tmp/klik/kid3/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/de/kid3
/tmp/klik/kid3/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kid3
/tmp/klik/kid3/usr/share/doc/kid3
/tmp/klik/kid3/usr/share/apps/kid3
I understand that the /tmp file are of no concern, but why does it leave so many files behind in the /mnt directory?
I'm confused because I thought that the beauty of Klilk packages was that I didn't have to be root, and that removal was done by simply deleting the CMG file.
Can you explain for me what's happened here?
Thanks!
Jon
