             Bug #: 48914
           Summary: uninstall process should remove .pyc files from
                    install directory
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO Master
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Installation
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: timar74 at gmail.com


When the LibreOffice program directory is writable by the user - typical on
Windows XP - Python creates .pyc files in LibreOffice install directory. These
.pyc files are not removed by uninstall process, because it removes only those
files, which were installed, or if there is a custom action to remove them.

Write a custom action, which runs during uninstall, finds all .pyc files in the
install directory, and deletes them. 

Custom actions live here:

I can help with integraton into the installer, the goal of this easy hack is to
develop a function (C++, Win32 API) that finds and deletes all .pyc files under
a given directory.
