Uninstall Gaim Beta on open SuSE 10.2
I've recently installed gaim 2.0 beta 6 from binary and don't know how to uninstall. Could someone please tell me what I need to do? I'm new to SuSE, but not Linux (formerly loyal to Fedora)

If you go to your "Administration Settings (YaST) >> Software >> Software Management" and do a search for "gaim", you should see it installed and be able to remove it. Right click on gaim, choose delete, then accept.
Alternatively, you could remove it using the command line with: su rpm -e gaim Regards! |

Sorry, but I tried that and the only reference to gaim is the package (from the install dvd) that isn't installed.
How do I uninstall an application I compiled from binary? Quote:

I see. You then installed it from source (like "./configure && make && make install", for example?). Well, if that is what you did, try going to the same folder where you ran "./configure" and type "make uninstall", assuming that the package had that script.
If a uninstall script isn't provided, you can easily remove the installed package by hand. Usually, binaries can be found at /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin, /usr/sbin. Remove them. Some libraries can also go to "/usr/lib". An example of finding where my "vim" is installed: Code:
find / -name vim Good luck! |
