Bug 80191 – cups documentation does not get uninstalled when emerging a new cups version

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Francesco Lamonica 2005-01-31 03:52:18 UTC]

I recently found that in /usr/share/doc there still are the directories belonging to old cups packages that had been installed on  my system (and subsequently upgraded by emerge). Seems that when emerging a new version the uninstall procedure does not handle correctly the doc directory

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
just one doc directory is expected to be there
