I was playing with AOLserver and OpenACS on one of my machines.
When things went wrong I decided to remove openacs which was installed via

aptitude install openacs

so I did aptitude remove openacs
to be sure I also did
aptitude purge openacs

then I reboot the machine and again start the installation
aptitude install openacs
I find some where the openacs picked up an old entry due to which when
I opened in a browser

http://localhost:8000

I could not proceed and got the error due to which I had removed it.
The question is how to cleanly remove it and start as if I am doing on
a fresh Ubuntu install.
Because that will surely work (I have tested on some other machine)
