Mamma mia .. then maybe the purge works :D (if there's still something outside the home folder)

(In the meantime, though keos already said "no config in Thunar" : /home/keos/.config/osmo/ )

No more configurations came this time, I did so many things.... I don't know what worked, i think it was 'purge'.

Thank you all.

Do you know if in this application there is a way to delete the annotations, I have searched and I can't find how to delete a date/note that I mistakenly set. Just in case ... to avoid going into this problem again.

This is all I know:

~/.config/osmo/config.xml => configuration


~/.local/share/osmo/

calendar_notes.xml => calendar groups and notes
contacts_records.xml => contacts data
ical_files.xml => active iCalendar files
notes_entries.xml => notes list
notes/*.osm => notes data files
tasks_entries.xml => tasks data

Wild idea. Open Synaptic, click Status in the left-hand pane, search for osmo, if there is still something found, even though it says not installed (I have something like that sitting in not installed - residual config), right click and see if you can mark for complete removal, then apply.

Yes, but it's ok now (this way he'll have to install once more) :)

Once more? I missed it was solved because of your post stating more suggestions.

Anyway, well. For next time then :)

I don't understand, there must be a way that without uninstalling the application we can delete what we have planned, doesn't it exist?, I ask because I can't find where it is. Thanks.

Your starting point of trying to remove personal notes by removing the app is completely misleading.
It's something like if you want to remove your office documents by uninstalling libreoffice.

The man page of osmo tells us:
man -P'less +/FILES' osmo wrote:FILES
The files are stored in locations indicated by XDG_CONFIG_HOME and
XDG_DATA_HOME environmental variables.

The default locations:

$HOME/.config/osmo/config.xml - configuration
$HOME/.local/share/osmo/calendar_notes.xml - calendar groups and notes
$HOME/.local/share/osmo/contacts_records.xml - contacts data
$HOME/.local/share/osmo/ical_files.xml - active iCalendar files
$HOME/.local/share/osmo/notes_entries.xml - notes list
$HOME/.local/share/osmo/notes/*.osm - notes data files
$HOME/.local/share/osmo/tasks_entries.xml - tasks data
which indicates the location of personal files of the data is stored by osmo.
But it also shows that those files can be anywhere, b/c you can set
any of those XDG_CONFIG_HOME and XDG_DATA_HOME
to something else.
To find any folder with name "osmo" you may consider to use this command:

Code: Select all

sudo find / -type -d -name osmo 2>/dev/null

If I understand what you say then ...

every time I want to delete a day in the calendar with some note I must resort to all this information, go to the files and ...?

It would be better to uninstall the application and reinstall it -- I mean, if I understand what you are saying.

If so, is there any other app more convenient, practical? Thank you.

you can remove daily notes and tasks right in the osmo interface. that wasn't what you asked in your original post.
