Did you acquire the package context before or after the uninstall? If before, it's eminently possible that Android is indeed keeping a record of processes holding package contexts and is only deleting the data once those processes have terminated. It is also possible that it's simply a question of time, that the package data is not deleted immediately upon uninstall but some moments later, and that requests from a package context will succeed in the interim. If you acquired the package context *after* the uninstall... please contact me off-list. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 3.7 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
