When installing the same application (most often seen with www-apps/gallery) into different filesystem locations, all is fine. Then, when uninstalling one of these locations using 'webapp-config -C', the other locations also get removed from the list 'webapp-config --li --verbose' provides. I have had 5 copies of www-apps/gallery in different locations. Then I uninstalled one by issuing: 'webapp-config -C -h site -d gallery2 gallery 2.3.2'. This results in none is given in the output of 'webapp-config --li --verbose' anymore: tango011 ~ # webapp-config --li --verbose * Installs for dokuwiki-20130510a * /var/www/marc-richter.info/htdocs/dokuwiki * Installs for drupal-7.24 * /var/www/marc-richter.info/htdocs/drupal * Installs for mediawiki-1.20.6 * /var/www/www.bardor.de/htdocs/mediawiki * Installs for owncloud-5.0.13-r1 * /var/www/marc-richter.info/htdocs/owncloud * Installs for phpBB-3.0.12 * /var/www/www.bardor.de/htdocs/phpBB3 * Installs for phpmyadmin-4.0.6 * /var/www/tango011.server4you.de/htdocs/phpmyadmin * Installs for wordpress-3.7.1 * /var/www/zoosau.de/htdocs/wordpress tango011 ~ # But it is installed in 4 locations still, which webapp-config realizes as soon as you try to install it into a folder where it already resides: tango011 gallery # pwd /var/www/marc-richter.info/htdocs/gallery tango011 gallery # ls MANIFEST bootstrap.inc config.php embed.php images index.php init.inc install lib locale main.php modules themes upgrade tango011 gallery # webapp-config -I -h marc-richter.info -d gallery gallery 2.3.2 * Fatal error: Package /gallery-2.3.2 is already installed here. * Fatal error: Use webapp-config -C to uninstall it first. * Fatal error: Install directory already contains a web application! * Fatal error(s) - aborting tango011 gallery # The other locations are still in place and the applications in there are still served; no files are missing or anything.

PS: 'webapp-config --lui -V' lists gallery-2.3.2 as not in use, even it still is installed in the other 4 locations, which might suggest anybody not aware of this malfunction that it is safe to remove the package from the system.
Just to confirm, the issue is with its entry being removed from the --list-install database and not from the filesystem, correct? If so, that's good because it shouldn't be removed from the filesystem and an entry removal is menial. I am currently working on how webapp-config handles it's entries though, so it should be fixed in the next release.

I do confirm that your description matches the behaviour I'm observing with version 1.52. In fact, the "-d directory" is ignored as well, meaning if you want to remove *one* instance out of several inside a give host, all of them are cleared from the database.
Issue has been resolved and will be available in the next release of webapp-config.
