Hello 070183,

I just tried beagle again. I installed it with “aptitude install beagle”, then went on my work for a while (to let it start index stuff). I then uninstalled it with “aptitude purge beagle && aptitude purge ~c” (to purge the libraries beagle dragged with it).

Then I noticed that the ~/.beagle folder was still there:

$ du -shc ~/.beagle/*
16K /home/bogdanb/.beagle/config
4.0K /home/bogdanb/.beagle/filterver.dat
50M /home/bogdanb/.beagle/Indexes
12M /home/bogdanb/.beagle/Log
0 /home/bogdanb/.beagle/socket
0 /home/bogdanb/.beagle/socket-helper
7.1M /home/bogdanb/.beagle/TextCache
0 /home/bogdanb/.beagle/ToIndex
69M total

Since I explicitly purged it, I'd expect the index to go away. I assume it would have been much larger had I asked it to index everything (by default in only indexes the home directory) and waited for it to continue.

The other folders (left-over when I first submitted the bug) were not created this time, apparently.

Do you think I should re-open this bug, or enter another one?
