Can't clear the installation
« on: February 11, 2005, 06:51:39 PM »

[root@localhost ~]# amule
Segmentation fault
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -e aMule-2.0.0rc8-1.i586-FC3.rpm
error: package aMule-2.0.0rc8-1.i586-FC3.rpm is not installed
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -Uvh aMule-2.0.0rc8-1.i586-FC3.rpm

The previous lines are copied from my terminal.

I installed aMule as non-root user and it worked fine one session.  Now it does not start  and there is no way I know to get the installation out. If someone knows how to clear and what to clear please tell me!

leave out the .rpm at the end ;)

rpm -qa | grep aMule will tell ya the right name  :)

Thank you stefanero! This -qa was something I didn't know. I've read the Linux for Dummies-book very hard but I did not find or understand this command.
The right line for deleting the installation is the following:
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -e aMule-2.0.0-rc8_fc3
[root@localhost ~]#
