Is it possible that it had to have at least one other thing checked, and Angry Birds was the only one left? *Shrug* Just wondering. I haven't had such issues myself yet, so it's quite possible it's linked to some other app/program installed, etc.
On the other hand, I had some completely unconventional bug with Live Focus (the app to control LEDs and camera focus while filming).
Basically something in the Live Focus app, somehow, got set to file permissions that didn't let the app manager, or apt-get ran as root, to edit it. Which in turn made it unupdatable and un-uninstallable. Never saw the same bug mentioned anywhere else on here. This was a few days before my reflash, actually.
But that does bring up a point - there's plenty of **** that can go wrong in a complex enough software system, with enough stuff running in the background at any given time, etc. Especially with extras-devel stuff. Even without doing stuff from the command line all the time (which I was doing, admittedly - though most of my command-line stuff is stuff other apps let you do through a UI, I just prefer the old school cd, ls, cd, ls, etc combination for finding my way around the file system, mv/cp/rm and the rest instead of installing an extra file manager, and vi for all but the most advanced file editing).
Anyway, what I'm trying to get at is that it's quite possibly a one-time thing, or something that may well be fixed by now. But at the same time, unless that's a risk you want to take, steering clear of the cl-launcher makes perfect sense.
On another note, I just checked, I just checked my Camera Lens Launcher settings, and it's constantly enabling Ansel-A (the 'digital darkroom' program... I didn't have it installed when I last looked in the settings)... Odd... I will see if I can find what file the cl-launcher keeps it's menu settings in, see if manually changing in will make it stick... In the meantime, we can file a bug with the dev. Either PM him or do the formal bug filing process - I just don't know HOW to file bugs on here, so if you wish to take the initiative (or just tell me how to do it), that would be wonderful.
