Uninstalling a wine game doesn't remove menu items

Open sharkwouter opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

Currently when you uninstall a wine game, it just deletes the directory in which the games is located. This means items in the user's operating system menu which were added by the GOG installer will remain.

This one is a bit harder to fix than I initially thought. The shortcuts are installed in ~/.local/share/applications/wine/Programs/GOG.com/. The issue is that the name of the directory is not decided by Minigalaxy, but by the installer.

This may or may not be fixed for 0.9.4.

Can you post a content of such a file? My idea is that we can read all files content in this directory (~/.local/share/applications/wine/Programs/GOG.com/) and if there is reference in such a file to game install directory. Remove that file to.

I think the shortcuts shouldn't be created at all to be honest. I'm sure we can make sure of that using some command in a similar way to how #289 works.

This one should be fixed together with #313

This will be considered fixed, which Innoextract is a mandory dependency.
