I am facing a different problem with sce-remove on ub-dCore-trusty (recent version of 20150505) that I am posting in this thread as it could be related to recent changes.
I have four extensions imported: flwm, graphics-3.16.6-tinycore, sl, xorg-all.
When I launch 'sce-remove' it shows the alphabetical list. When I remove, say, sl the listing is re-created but is corrupted. It reads
- flwm
- graphics...
- xorg-all
- flwm
- graphics...
- xorg-all
When I remove flwm the new listing reads
- graphics...
- xorg-all
- graphics...
- xorg-all
- graphics...
- xorg-all
Quitting at this point, the messages say
grep: *.dep: No such file or directory
grep: *.dep: No such file or directory
sl
flwm
The above SCEs will be removed upon shutdown or reboot.
This indeed happens, so the basic functionality is working. Simply the listing seems to repeat until at least six items are present.
