+When ownCloud was installed before and uninstalled via AppCenter or via command
+line using apt-get remove, ownCloud can be simply installed again. The old
+configuration will be used again.
+
+When an older ownCloud was installed and has been purged (only possible via
+command line using apt-get purge) the old configuration is gone, but data is
+left. This blocks an installation. You can either install the old version and
+upgrade to ownCloud 5 or (re)move the old data. This is done by removing the
+MySQL database "ownCloud" using the command line:
+
+::
+
+	mysql -u root -e "DROP DATABASE owncloud" -p`tail /etc/mysql.secret
+
+In this case you probably also want to remove the data directory
+**/var/lib/owncloud** although this is not mandatory.
