You need to purge the install completely:
Code:
dpkg --purge quick-launch

But I want to avoid this, I want (if it's possible) to make a clean uninstall, so users doesn't have to run dpkg --purge (I presume appmanager never run this command).

So, I should release it as is and go ahead ?
I've some problem on making a clean uninstall of my package ( quick-launch, ver. 0.9 in svn ).
All the package's files are removed, but the app still shows up when I run dpkg -l and it is marked as 'rc'.
Also when I run dpkg -L the output is : Package `quick-launch' does not contain any files (!)
Any hints on how to make a clean uninstall ?
Thanks.
