Description

Under create content > book, the link doesn't go away, even after disabling and uninstalling module. I'm running a brand new version of 6-dev w/i a typical LAMP environment.

This is because the book content type is added in book.install, rather than, say, through book_node_info or something. Poll module, for instance, uses poll_node_info to add its content type, while book module uses _book_install_type_create().

I'm not really sure why, but I presume there is a reason book module is doing it this way.

I'm having the same problem here in v6.3, funny that this core module doesn't act like this in Drupal 5.x

One workaround is to delete the content type manually at /admin/content/types
