Bug Description

I had a version of squi, not old though, but i downloaded some config files from somewhere i dont remember, then now i wanted to use pure squid installation, i had to remove the old squid using: (as root) apt-get purge squid
and rm -R /etc/squid3...
which in return removed my downloaded files. Ok, now i tried to re-install squid using : (as root) apt-get install squid. i left for like 15 minutes came back and saw the error. No tools or apps or browser were used in the time between removing and reinstalling squid, i removed and then quickly reinstall, i didnt restart, i didnt use applications or anything before removing squid, not even while installing it. I hope i helped.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Since it seems likely to me that this is a local configuration problem, rather than a bug in Ubuntu, I'm marking this bug as Incomplete.

If indeed this is a local configuration problem, you can find pointers to get help for this sort of problem here: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community

Or if you believe that this is really a bug, then you may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your system, and then change the bug status back to New.
