How to remove the Autopackage environment
Posted: Tue Apr 05, 2011 9:10 am
In order to remove the Autopackage environment and all the applications installed with it, do the following:
Note: You may choose to uninstall only the Autopackage environment.
In that case you will only be able to remove the applications manually!
1. List the packages installed
2. Remove applications leaving anything that starts with "autopackage" for last.
If the package was installed as root, you will have to remove it as root too.
3. Remove the Autopackage runtime
In the example above, all the packages had been installed as root, consequently, I had to remove everything as root.
