how to uninstall using checkinstall
hi everybody ....
i configured and compile vlc player from source file vlc-0.8.5-i686.tgz using checkinstall......... but how can i uninstall them using checkinstall............ |
doesnt pkgtool do anything?
|
or removepkg
|
thanks dive....
but still prob.. is that in some source file there is no make uninstall.... i heard that checkinstall is effective in removing such file....... in checkinstall manual there is nothing written about how to remove such file...... can anyone help!!!!!!!!!!! |
Both satinet and dive told you exactly how to remove them. Use the normal Slackware tools for removing packages. Checkinstall makes the make uninstall command completely and totally irrelevant.
|
yes i dont understand what the problem is. if you've made a proper slackware package then just remove it normally....
|
ok hangdog42 and satinet....
do u want to say.. create slakware pkg from source...... to install use installpkg cmd and then to remove them use removepkg cmd.. ok then got ur point... thanks.. |

for .tar you may require checkinstall to remove them completely. But .tgz are slackwares own package. You just need the simple commands to install, upgrade and remove them. install #installpkg <name of pkg> upgrade #upgradepkg <name of pkg> remove #removepkg <name of pkg> regards |
