Comment 3 for bug 274146

Option 2 will not only break jhbuild sessions, but also situations where you share your home partitions amongst different distributions or even just different Ubuntu releases. For the same reason, option 3 is not really good.

I am still a strong believer in never trying to change user configuration on upgrades automatically, since there will always be cases when we'll get it wrong.

My personal feeling is that we should describe the change in the upgrade notes, and just let the user remove the superfluous applet himself after the upgrade, depending on which one he likes better. After all, it is an upgrade, which users do to *not* loose all their configuration after all? Would that really be so bad?
