unstalling packages
how do you unstall a program when you don't want it any more. Is it a different uninstall process if it is install from a rpm or from a source? To unstall from source do you have to do something like unmake install, make unistall, etc. thanks for any info

to uninstall an rpm you can search for the package in the rpm datbase to get the package i.e-if you want to unistall xmms you would
Code:
rpm -qa|grep xmms xmms-1.2.9-4mdk then to uninstall Code:
rpm -e xmms-1.2.9-4mdk Code:
rpm -e xmms-1.2.9-4mdk dependency1 dependency2 linux_terror |
usually it's "make uninstall" as root for source packages. Packages differ, so always read the INSTALL or README files coz they can give you important info on installation and deinstallation of packages. For RPM's it's "rpm -e packagename.rpm".
It seems I was beaten to the answer ;-) |
