Problem in deleling a software/package
Hi all folks,
RH8.0 Sylpheed-claws ============= I tried to remove "sylpheed-claws" from RH8.0. It was installed from tarball and placed under /home/user/.sylpheed I deleted its folder including files on Konqueror "Home". But it can still be started. As ROOT # locate sylpheed /home/user/.sylpheed /home/user/.sylpheed/ ........ ......... It was still there but disappeared on Konqueror Neither could I # rm /home/user/.sylpheed rm: cannot lstat `/home/satimis/.sylpheed': No such file or directory # cd /home/satimis/.sylpheed -bash: cd: /home/satimis/.sylpheed: No such file or directory Kindly advise how to erase it. Why it was not shown up on Konqueror (Show hidden files already ON) Thanks in advance. B.R. satimis |
locate uses a database that probably hasn't been updated since you removed the folder. Try running this as root first:
updatedb |
Hi all,
Ah, I forgot to run updatedb. Reboot PC did not help to update database. Also I overlooked to erase /root/.sylpheed/ That was why sylpheed still could be started. Thanks B.R. satimis |
