Uninstalling module and deletion variables [#527096]

Uninstall module will delete all variables which names contains 's'. All variables of ALL existing modules & themes.

This statement db_query("DELETE FROM {variable} WHERE name LIKE '%%s%'", 'acidfree');
is equal to DELETE FROM {variable} WHERE name LIKE '%s%'

Need to be

  variable_del('acidfree_variable_name_1);
  variable_del('acidfree_variable_name_2);
  variable_del('acidfree_variable_name_3);

Sorry for my bad English.

Subscribing and hoping for a solution. I really want to uninstall this module.

file 'acidfree.install'

ORIGIN

function acidfree_uninstall() {
    db_query('DROP TABLE {acidfree_album}');
    db_query("DELETE FROM {variable} WHERE name LIKE '%%s%'", 'acidfree');
    taxonomy_del_vocabulary(variable_get('acidfree_vocab_id', 0));
    db_query("DELETE FROM {blocks} WHERE module = '%s'", 'acidfree');
}

Minimal changes:
-change order of 2nd and 3rd strings
-corrected SQL statement in NEW 3rd string.

function acidfree_uninstall() {
    db_query('DROP TABLE {acidfree_album}');
    taxonomy_del_vocabulary(variable_get('acidfree_vocab_id', 0));
    db_query("DELETE FROM {variable} WHERE name LIKE '%acidfree%'");
    db_query("DELETE FROM {blocks} WHERE module = '%s'", 'acidfree');
}
