I have installed mysql-server-5.1 from terminal.
Something went wrong and I had to uninstall it, done.
When I type: sudo apt-get remove mysql
double tab, it still give me a list with some mysql options, trying to remove them I get this message:
Here is the list:
mysql-common mysql-server-5.1 mysql-workbench-gpl
And this is the message
Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading
state information... Done Package mysql-server-5.1 is not installed,
so not removed 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not
upgraded.
Is it really removed? If so, is there a way to remove it from the list?
You can use Synaptic Package Manager (GUI) or Command Line
If you do not have Synaptic Package Manager installed, you can install it either, by using Ubuntu Software Center or by typing:
sudo apt-get install synaptic
To more information on how to use Synaptic Package Manager See this page
Command line
To completely remove programs using the command line, you have the following options;
Completely remove package using dpkg
sudo dpkg -P package name
