Need help deleting a few items

kernelhead · 10-13-2022, 10:27 PM

Ubuntu user here.

I went through and did some "spring cleaning" and got rid of a handful of programs either with Ubuntu software center, Synaptic Software, or the purge command in terminal. However, I need some assistance getting rid of these final few please...None of them do anything much, most do nothing when selected...Just trying to tidy up - if you can help me get rid of one or more of these I'd appreciate it...

Uninstall Nostalgia - I thought this had something to do with Wine due to it's icon, but it says Uninstall Nostalgia

Play Nostalgia - Not sure what it is, doesn't do anything when selected...

Power Statistics - It doesn't do much at all when I select it, I assume it monitors the computers power usage, but just shows the Window below when opened.... Want to get rid of it too

Database - does nothing when selected....

All the icons with the red wine glasses on them - they do nothing & not sure what they go with. Unless if they used by "Wine" and needed by Wine, then I would want to keep them as I use Wine. Oddly though, one says "uninstall Nostagia" and does nothing...

I'm not sure why I ran start.exe with wine, but it had something to do with one of them (and has something to do with MS Windows)...

Code:

sudo dpkg -l | grep -Ei 'talgia|power|abase'

may give you an idea which installed packages you could try removing using sudo apt purge <packagename>. On Jammy here I don't see anything resembling your description or images.

Code:

sudo ps -A | tail -n25

may suggest what the names of the binaries are after trying to use them.

Code:

sudo dpkg -S /usr/bin/<binaryName>

will report the package name owning the binaryName ps reports.
