Uninstall Flash, LibreOffice or OpenOffice

A stupid question, I know, but... how do I uninstall applications installed with get-*.tazpkg packages ?

e.g. flash, LibreOffice, OpenOffice, etc.

[c]tazpkg remove LibreOffice[/c] or [c]tazpkg remove flash-plugin[/c]?

It generates a package as it installs so you can remove it by removing that package.

Nice, thank you. smile

Just as a note, it's better to first:

[c]tazpkg -l | grep -i <package>[/c]

and then:

[c]tazpkg remove <package>[/c]

For OpenOffice the name of the generated package seems to be OpenOffice3, so a search in the package list first is recommended to avoid errors.

That's why we have [c]tazpkg search[/c] and it's already grepping the list...

Ok, really. I wish people would stop unregistering themselves. This is turning into a horrible trend.

Re: Uninstall Flash, LibreOffice or OpenOffice

Sorry to come back on this but I wanted to keep the same title.

I cannot eliminate packages with the "tazpkg remove <package>" that is indicated also in the specific tazpkg's manual. Applying this on any package does not seem to have any effect.

I made a clean new install and I do not dare repeating the experience of install/test/remove a package as I usually do.

Can anybody help on this matter?

Great linux distro, really light-weight (finally, I did make several installations) on an old, slow Acer A110 with ssd. Only Puppy is a contender but you cannot really compare to Slitaz.
