Dear all,
I have just deleted a package I created for testing. However, the main
(public) function contained in the package seems to still exist, and
gretl prevents me from creating a new one with the same name.
I have even uninstalled gretl and installed the latest version, but the
function still exists even though the package no longer appears in the
package list.
How can I eradicate it permanently?

Paolo, what's the name of this function? Are you sure it's not built-in?

For an ordinary user-defined function you can do

function funcname delete

Paolo, are you saving to a session file? Functions that were defined at the time of saving are restored when the session file is re-opened.

Could that be the case?

That's a very clever and plausible hypothesis, I wasn't really aware of this behavior. Let's see if Paolo confirms this.

Apart from that, after opening the session file, one could perhaps do "clear --functions".

cheers
