I haven't looked into why the uninstall script does not work as intended (yet).
But the Booklet version of KUAL is for certain broke on 5.8.x (and maybe earlier versions).
The problem can be seen in /var/log/messages for those with ssh (or other command line) access.

The entire system is 'event driven' -
And Lab126 has re-defined (re-named) some of the lower level stuff.
In terms of 'standard' policies, that low level a change should be a major version number bump (5.x -> 6.y).
But the 6.<anything> firmware version numbers are Kindle Fire (Android) firmware versions.

In the case of USBnetworking -
it can still be toggled on/off with the searchbar command:
;un
yes - the semi-colon is part of the command.

And NiLuJe put a 'dispatcher' into the ;log scripting - so we can extend that command from the two that it currently recognizes.
(mrpi and runme)

I have a PW-3 (relatively 'modern') still running 5.6.1.1 - but I haven't had a chance to confirm if the Booklet is broken in the same way on that version of the firmware.

We have a few 'new' software authors here recently but I am about the only one of the 'old' developers that still can show up here once a day.
Everyone else has found a 'real life' I guess.

I am lucky to find enough time to answer questions, no way can I keep up with the changes being made by an entire department of paid programmers (lab126).
