Bug Description
When installing from live-cd or if Capser is installed, it leaves /usr/share/
A work around is to boot with "nocompcache" as a kernel option. However, requiring a user to boot with "nocompcache" is beyond many users and will surely frustrate power-users and developers.

More information as to how Casper ended up on my laptop:
I installed the usb-creator on Oneiric, which required lupin-capser, which pulled in casper. I upgrade from Oneiric to Precise on 2012-01-07. On 2012-02-01, my host picked up the version of Casper which has the compcache setting.
