When doing a apt-get prune icinga2 followed by an apt-get autoremove, the following icinga2 entries still remain on the machine.

./etc/bash_completion.d/icinga2
./etc/init.d/icinga2
./etc/default/icinga2
./etc/logrotate.d/icinga2

I suppose these should be added to the cleanup.

Nope. those are configfiles. Unless you do an explicit purge, they won't get
removed.

Btw. a command like apt-get prune doesn't exist, I guess you meaned apt-get
remove.

Hi,

Sorry, I meant apt-get purge, not prune... :)

Best,

apt-get purge icinga2
That won't purge any of the packages containing configuration. Let me guess,
the command you missed to tell me was apt-get autoremove? Which also doesn't
do a purge on the packages it removes. Therefore all configuration files will
stay.

Everything works as designed.

Works as designed, therefore I'll close the bug now.
