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

 

Thank you for confirming, Matthew.

Is it possible to fix this behavior in time for the 2011.0.0 installer?

And does it make sense to fix the 2010.4.0 installer as well?

Title:
  Hugin 2010.4.0 deinstallation also deletes files it didn't install

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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\.
