Methods:

1. Software unloading is mainly carried out using rpm. To uninstall software, you first need to know the name of the package registered in the system.

Type the command:

#rpm -q -a

You can find all the packages installed in the current system.

2, determine the name of the software to uninstall, you can start the actual uninstall of the software.

Type the command:

#rpm -e [package name]

The software can be uninstalled. The function of parameter e is to put rpm into unload mode. Uninstall the package named [package name].

Because of the dependencies between packages in the system, rpm will prompt and stop the uninstall if it cannot be uninstalled due to dependencies. You can ignore dependencies and start unloading directly using the following command:

#rpm -e [package name] -nodeps

Uninstalling dependencies may cause other software in the system to become unusable.

How to uninstall software installed with source packages?

It is best to look at README and INSTALL, which are generally said, but most software does not provide a way to uninstall the source package; we can find the installation point of the software to delete. It depends on where you install it.

For example:

If installing software, specify directories. This question is not difficult either.

For example, install gaim with source package

#./ configure --prefix=/opt/gaim #make #make install

If mlterm is installed

#./ configure --prefix=/opt/mlterm #make #make install

The source package installed software, are designated to install in the/opt directory, so do not know. If deleted, delete the corresponding software catalog.

Some software needs to perform make uninstall in the unzipped installation directory, so it is uninstalled.
