postrm has: id -u diaspora && userdel -r diaspora Where -r == delete all files in the user's home directory. As per: https://sources.debian.net/src/diaspora-installer/0.6.3.0%2Bdebian4/debian/diaspora-common.postrm/ This makes me very very nervous. You have no control over what changes might happen to the home directory. It might not be the directory you expect it to be. Been there myself. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=190427 Far safer to delete the files you need deleted yourself, and remove the "-r" option.
