<b>How to remove debian packages</b>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The normal way to remove a Debian package is to use
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
apt-get remove name
|
||
|
|
Or
|
||
|
|
aptitude remove name
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But in this way you are left with a bunch of configuration files. You can remove
|
||
|
|
individual package configuration with:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
apt-get purge name
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Or all those packages that has been removed, but not completely:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
dpkg -l | grep ^rc | cut -d' ' -f3|xargs dpkg -P
|
