Is that a mounted partition?

If it is indeed a partition, you could always just mount it elsewhere
and then remove the configs inside it and let your installs have a
/home/Karl of their own, instead of a single one shared across. That
would eliminate the conflicting configs and you could mount your old
/home/Karl partition to say, /home/Karl/Data or /media/Data on every
install.
If the problem is just a pet peeve of having too much in your
/home/Karl, then I think that you don't necessarily need the support
of the mailing list for that, you've proven you can remove things in a
number of your threads.

If your intention is to make your current /home/Karl into  a data
partition, you don't necessarily need to remove the configs. But
either way, YMYR. Just don't blame anyone for what happens. Have a
good time of it.
