that was something I was playing with, then when I did an update, upgrade-all the other day t came up dups in packages, what do you want to delete, blacklist etc, I deleted both of them, because I didn't want them anymore.
now that I am seeing this issue, what to do to fix it. clean system and reinstall all of my 3rd party apps again. or is there a easier way?
mod:
is that even a install on Slack? so just do a reinstall that? ( i just thought about that one.)
mod2:
