Linux System Administration
Software Management with RPM
APT - Removing Packages
Note that
apt-get
remove will not remove configuration files from
/etc
.
This allows you to reinstall the package at a later date and still have the same configuration.
You can use the --purge option to remove all files, including configuration files.
Another option would be to move the files to another location and archive them.
How can you know which files to move:
rpm -ql package
