Re: [Evolution] new oaf problem ?

[Xavier Bestel <n0made free fr>]

Well, I had done this and rebooted (not related, kernel change), and it
wasn't better. I had to remove /tmp/orbit*, then to restart everyting
oaf-related to make the trick.
This is really a pain in the neck. Why can't the packagers use the script
possibility present in the packages (rpm and deb) to clean up everything
when updating oaf ? This would save some time for end-users. I remember a
past discussion about not killing oafd (I don't remember precisely the
reason), well each time I kill it it seems harmless. So why don't we have a
smoother upgrade path ?
