Comment 2 for bug 804188

Hi Axel,

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I have observed the same behavior so I'll be able to confirm this bug report. However I'd appreciate your help in making it a bit more complete with specific information on your version and system.

To that end, I'd like to ask you to please execute the following command, as it will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal:
apport-collect 804188
When reporting bugs in the future please use apport by using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs.

Also I'd appreciate if you can confirm that the behavior can be replicated by this procedure:

1- sudo apt-get install dconf
2- sudo dconf

at this point the symlink gets created, then:

3- sudo apt-get remove dconf

Expected result:
- /etc/cron.weekly/dconf gets removed
Actual result:
- /etc/cron.weekly/dconf remains and points to a file that's no longer present

Once you help me by completing this information, we'll be able to move the bug report further.

Thanks again!
