Uninstall issue

Hi,

eric is installed in the Python environment used to execute the install 
script. The majority of file is in site-packages/eric6 and some starter 
scripts in the bin directory of the environment. All these (and some of 
the files in ~/.local/share/applications) should get removed by the 
uninstall script. If the uninstall script thinks, that eric is not 
installed, this means that the script was executed with a different 
python executable than the install script or that the eric6config.py 
file in the site-packages directory got removed manually. The uninstall 
script tries to import this module and extracts the relevant data out of 
it in order to its job.

Why Anaconda is not functioning anymore I don't know. I suspect some 
other cause than purely installing eric.

Regards,
Detlev
