Error message

localized uninstall failure message (Conf.Language(47)) with error detail

What it means

UninstallPackage resolves the install path and then calls bazaar.UninstallPackage to delete the package directory. If the deletion fails, the kernel wraps the error with the localized message Conf.Language(47) and the error detail. The package remains on disk because the actual removal operation failed.

Solutions

1. Read the wrapped detail in the message to identify the OS-level cause.
2. Ensure the package is not in use (disable the plugin/switch themes) and retry the uninstall.
3. Check write/delete permissions on the workspace's package directory and remove locks (antivirus, other processes).
4. As a last resort, manually delete the package directory, then remove its persisted info via bazaar.RemovePackageInfo.

Example fix

// before: uninstalling while plugin is active
model.UninstallPackage("plugins", "my-plugin")
// after: disable the plugin first, then uninstall
model.UninstallPackage("plugins", "my-plugin") // ensure disablePlugin ran first
// e.g. api: POST /api/bazaar/uninstallBazaarPlugin after disabling via setting

if err := model.UninstallPackage(pkgType, name); err != nil {
    log.Errorf("uninstall failed (package may be in use): %v", err)
    return fmt.Errorf("uninstall %s failed: %w", name, err)
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling UninstallPackage where bazaar.UninstallPackage fails — typically because files in the install directory are locked (editor/plugin still loaded), the process lacks write/delete permission on the package directory, or the directory was concurrently removed.

Common situations: Uninstalling a theme/plugin that is currently in use on Windows (file in use); kernel process running without permission over another user's package directory; antivirus holding files open; network-mapped workspace drives with delayed deletes.
