[Bug 723661] [NEW] Hugin 2010.4.0 deinstallation also deletes files it didn't install

 

Public bug reported:

Affects 2010.4.0 released December 2010 Windows distribution

I have added old binaries in %ProgramFiles%\Hugin\bin070\ and autopano-
sift-c.exe in %ProgramFiles%\Hugin\bin\.

After deinstallation the additional directories are gone - together with
%ProgramFiles%\Hugin\ itself.

Don't know if this is bug or feature. I, however, would appreciate it if
Hugin wouldn't silently delete files it didn't copy during installation
time but rather show a notice that not all files were deleted.

On a sidenote: Updating Hugin 0.7.0 with 2010.4.0 results in two
deinstallation entries in Start/Settings/Add or Remove Software but
overwritten binaries in %ProgramFiles%\Hugin\.
