Apt-get removing a package won't go into your home directory
and remove config files in there. I don't believe that using
'dpkg --purge' will even come into your home directory. The
reason is that dpkg and apt-get can only remove files that
it created during the install, and files in your home
directory are not created during the install.

So. You'll need to hunt down the home-dir files manually.
Probably doing something like so will help you:

find ~ -type d -iname '*gnutella*'

This will catch more files:

find ~ | grep -i gnutella

See if you find anything that way.

Cheers,
Steve
