Huh? Your accounts are in .gconf? Mine are stored in couchdb, along with messages and preferences:
ed...@edgar-laptop:~$ ll .local/share/desktop-couch/gwibber_* -rw-r--r-- 1 edgar edgar 20571 2010-05-02 10:28 .local/share/desktop-couch/gwibber_accounts.couch -rw-r--r-- 1 edgar edgar 495716 2010-05-05 12:44 .local/share/desktop-couch/gwibber_messages.couch -rw-r--r-- 1 edgar edgar 69723 2010-05-04 12:15 .local/share/desktop-couch/gwibber_preferences.couch Mine is a fresh install of Lucid, not an upgrade. Is that what is causing this difference, I wonder... To remove an application and configuration files (that are installed with the package) you are supposed to use: sudo apt-get purge packagename However, I don't think that removes data that is created by the installed application when it is running -- so I think you'd have to manually delete the ~/.gconf/apps/gwibber and ~/.cache/gwibber folders to get rid of its configuration and cached data. To compare the couchdb installed packages and versions, could you run: dpkg -l "*couch*" | grep '^ii' and paste the output? Here is what the versions are on my installation: ii couchdb-bin 0.10.0-1ubuntu2 RESTful document oriented database, programs ii desktopcouch 0.6.4-0ubuntu3 A Desktop CouchDB instance ii evolution-couchdb 0.4.5-0ubuntu1 Evolution support for CouchDB databases ii libcouchdb-glib-1.0-2 0.6.3-0ubuntu1 GLib-based API for CouchDB ii libdesktopcouch-glib-1.0-2 0.6.3-0ubuntu1 Glib-based API for Desktopcouch ii python-couchdb 0.6-1 library for working with Apache CouchDB ii python-desktopcouch 0.6.4-0ubuntu3 Python Desktop CouchDB ii python-desktopcouch-records 0.6.4-0ubuntu3 Desktop CouchDB Records API -- Tweets do not appear at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/573505 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
