Description Olivier Hallot 2012-06-20 12:33:52 UTC 
On vanilla uninstallation, LibreOffice leaves a folder in %PROGRAMFILES%\LibreOffice 3.5\ containing extensions and python folders

LibreOffice uninstall should destroy %PROGRAMFILES%\LibreOffice 3.5\ completely.

@Olivier: you did not specify the version. 3.5.4 should remove .pyc files and python folders. I finished a patch today that removes the shared\prereg\bundle directory, too. Please let me know, if your problem is different.

@Andras... I actually was uninstalling a 3.5.4 version. Need to double check tomorrow what is left behind.

No new info has come in, and my tests show that this bug is fixed. Help packs were not tested. Once I saw problems with uninstalling help packs. I'll fix it, too, when I find some time.
