AFAICT, the database is normally treated as a configuration file from dpkg's perspective. Use --purge to do what you need.

Perhaps that's one of the reasons they decided on .rpm for MeeGo or does that have such annoying policies as well?

Policies exist for a reason: suppose you're uninstalling the package for a db server, try imagining how fun it'd be to see the data thrown out. No, not for a broken db, any db!
If you believe that the Application Manager (i.e., the gui, not the package manager which is dpkg) should use --purge instead of --remove, try submitting a bugreport / brainstorm (but do check the current situation first!)

Ah, thinking like a true *nix-head. No, I believe that if Maemo/MeeGo stands any sort of chance of gaining a decent foothold for use in "consumer" devices then it needs to grow up and become more user friendly (as most *nix flavours still need to do). This kind of thinking doesn't help - asking people to "root" into their device and then type in obscure command-line instructions is a step backwards.

Hi folks,
I'd like to tell you that I have fixed the issues with the & characters and the deletion of the shows.
It will be available in the next release, which I want to do this weekend.
Thank you all for taking the time to help me tackle these issues.
