ikonia_hi varunendra15:55
varunendrahi ikonia_15:55
ikonia_thanks for joining15:55
ikonia_want to explain the problem ?15:55
varunendrathe current user is urzg in #ubuntu. This one seems like a bot, starts with a common question - "where are u from"..15:56
ikonia_ok, so he's sending you this in pm ?15:56
varunendraalways presents himself as a us-bengali, wanting some info about education system in India. Yes in pm15:57
varunendrabut the info part is just an excuse, it just keeps stretching to possibly more intimate informations (which of course I'm smart enough to exclude)15:58
ikonia_when was this ?15:58
varunendraat least the fourth time now, he is right now trying the same thing15:58
ikonia_he's doing it at this moment ?15:58
varunendraalways with a different username..15:58
varunendrayup15:58
ikonia_I'm talking to him at the moment15:58
varunendrabut since I asked in the channel, perhaps he's gone15:59
varunendrak15:59
ikonia_can you hang on for a moment15:59
varunendrabecause of the way he responds, it doesn't look like a bot, or a too smart one if it is16:00
varunendrasure16:00
ikonia_just while I talk to him16:00
ikonia_ok - he's delt with16:02
ikonia_he tried to lie about it then admitted it16:02
varunendraso definitely not a bot. Probably a phishing guy (or team?)16:02
ikonia_no, a person16:02
ikonia_all sorted, any more problems, just let me know16:03
ikonia_(or the team know)16:03
varunendrasure. Thanks a lot :)16:04
ikonia_no problem,16:04
ubottuFloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (repeated abuse from xeeder)18:07
valoriein #kubuntu, someone just invoked !purge, and got:20:24
valorie!purge20:24
ubottuTo purge all removed but not yet purged packages, use the following command: dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/{print $2}' |  sudo xargs dpkg -P20:24
valorie[13:09] <ubottu> [15:49:05] To purge all removed but not yet purged packages, use the following command: dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/{print $2}' |  sudo xargs dpkg -P20:24
valoriethis seems a bit techy for an ubottu factoid, if not destructive20:24
valorieimo20:24
IdleOneHow about: To purge the configuration files along with the package, do the following command in a console: sudo apt-get --purge packagename20:31
IdleOne?20:31
Flannelapt-get purge packagename20:32
Flannelor remove with --purge20:32
Flannelbut, that won't address the same issue the original one did (which was purging config files of already-removed packages)20:32
IdleOnetrue20:32
IdleOneHow about: To purge the configuration files along with the package, do the following command in a console: sudo apt-get purge packagename | For packages that have already been removed run: dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/{print $2}' |  sudo xargs dpkg -P20:33
IdleOnebetter?20:33
IdleOnecovers both bases like that20:34
FlannelUsing a pipe to delimit your statements is confusing, when you then use it for bash :P20:34
FlannelHow about we change !purge to your proposed one, about what purging is, etc.20:34
IdleOneheh20:34
Flanneland then make another one for the purge-of-already-removed-packages, with a See-also from !purge20:34
IdleOneSounds good to me. But what do we name the second factoid?20:35
FlannelBut I'd elaborate and explain the difference between purge and remove20:35
IdleOne!remove20:35
FlannelI don't have a good answer to that question20:35
FlannelMaybe something like (I don't like this wording): "Removing a package normally leaves configuration files behind.  Purging removes all of the files in a package (including configuration files)...."20:37
IdleOneWe can make that !remove20:37
IdleOneand add See !purge20:37
FlannelSo, you're going to tell them how to purge when they say !remove?20:37
IdleOnelol I'm confused now20:38
IdleOneor we just do: To purge the configuration files along with the package, do the following command in a console: sudo apt-get purge packagename -- For packages that have already been removed run: dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/{print $2}' |  sudo xargs dpkg -P20:38
