Hi!

I've found a very annoying thing: I just cannot uninstall subversive. I've used install new software -> already installed and then I uninstalled everything that came with subversive. Restart fine it's not there in the installed components but offers me to install connectors. Then I install subclipse and when I look at the open new view I see 2 SVN groups. The Subversive group and views are still there but they do not work.

So thanks to this I'm switching to subclipse.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install subversive
2.Uninstall subversive

Well, reinstalling helios didn't solve my problem: I had to create a new workspace since with the old worksapce the connector installation dialog always showed up upon restart and I still had 2 SVN repository browsing and other view

Subversive have no relation to the Ganymede, Galileo, Helios or Indigo installation managers. So, if there is an issue, shouldn't it be reported to the Platform component instead? But still, after trying to reproduce the issue I haven't found any problems. Everything was uninstalled swiftly and without any additional questions. Moreover "reinstalling Helios didn't solve the problem" - is just plainly impossible, because when you delete Eclipse folder with its content there is no way for Subversive (or any other plug-in) code to survive. And being said so, I'll assume there is some mistake on your side which is caused appearance of such a strange problem.
