Follow-up Comment #5, bug #40881 (project pspp):
> At least this would create a problem when versions are installed on top of
each other without uninstalling before.
Suppose you record the files that were created in a text file. Then, when you
install a new version on top, you can just append the new files to the text
file.
> Further this will still be a problem if 2 different programs are installed
in the same directory structure. For example ../bin will contain *.dll files.
How can I know if these are not used by other programs too????
You can't, but at least you'd only delete files can be reinstalled with the
other program's installer, rather than deleting user data.
