RPM is ridiculous...
Ok I installed an RPM (rather updated it) and now I want to uninstall it.....
shouldn't this do it --> rpm -e whatever.rpm Well it doesn't it retardedly tells me that the package that I JUST INSTALLED.....is not installed......what do I do? |
There is a difference between the package name and the name of the rpm file.
Try rpm -e then the name of the package without .rpm on the end, that mostly works. |
I think you should first of all make sure it's been installed. For this you should get something from this:
Code:
rpm -L | grep <whatever> Code:
rpm -L | more If the whatever appears in the list whether by using the first or the second way, then try: Code:
rpm -e whatever Since I'm not very like the most appropriate person to help about this, I encourage anyone who knows more than me about this to write his/her solution. Good luck!! :D |
oh awesome thanks.....I used apt-get to uninstall it actually since it was a program that was on there - but i'll keep the advice in mind
