Fr Jan 11 17:22:20 2013 Good evening Thank You for help. Problem 2:Install Remove Software
---------------- How can I remove software using the OS Linux. Now I tried to remove Evolution also with purge. But it was not possible for me newbie. I think it is the same problem like windows: I have to clean the hd from Evolution. Is this right? ---------------- R = No, it's not right. Depending to your Distro, you can use many ways to remove a software. * Thank You To remove in Debian/Ubuntu: * apt-get remove package (remove a package) * This was not ok. * apt-get remove --purge package (remove a package and configuration files) * This was not ok. * apt-get remove --purge --auto-remove package (remove a package, configuration files and dependencies) To remove in RedHat/Fedora: * yum remove package or yum erase package (remove a package and configuration files) * Maybe this is ok:apt-get remove --purge --auto-remove evolution Why: After apt-get remove --purge evolution there were and there are a lot of directories filled with evolution files: usr/lib ussr/share usr/share/gnome/help usr/share/gnome/help-langpack .config .gconf .local/share/evolution (maybe more) ---------------- How to install a Linuxsoftware? Until now I open the Softwarecenter from Xubuntu and then I start in a terminal: sudo apt-get install gimp. Where ist Linux searching? On hd or in the www? ---------------- R = On HD. On terminal enter: * gimp (you can use TAB to complete the command. You need the grafic environment to execute the gimp) * or on an grafic environment, click on the menus that appears on the screen and search for the icon gimp * If there is a gimp on the live-cd I did sudo apt-get install gimp and very often it is ok. Sometimes the answer was: I miss files. ---------------- How can I install software not saved on the Live CD? ---------------- R = Yes, you can install software not saved on the Live CD, in the same way that I showed above. * Example: Can I try. sudo apt-get freepascal and then Linux is running through the www and bring me the freepascal? Questions: How many programs I can install with a Linuxsystem? (for not block the os) ---------------- For example: Pascal compiler. And what kind of compiler: GNU Lazarus Freepascal? ---------------- R = To search and display/show (caracteristics) a specific package to do it: To search in Debian/Ubuntu: * apt-cache search expression (for example: "apt-cache search pascal". Many generic) * apt-cache search expression | grep -i expression (for example: "apt-cache search pascal | grep -i pascal". More cool and specific) To search in RedHat/Fedora: * yum search expression (for example: yum search pascal) * yum list package To show package caracterists in Debian/Ubuntu: * apt-cache show package To show package caracterists in RedHat/Fedora: * yum info package * Sorry, this was the right question. How can I find the best "pascal-compiler"? I was reading newspapers and forums to find out. OH gimp blender inkscape are the best graphik software for me. Because when I open softwarecenter, there are a lot of software for draw pictures. Same I was trying and looking aroung to see claws is the best email programf for me. I hope I helped you, * Yes thank You- Hugo Azevedo * Regards Sophie ------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from this list, please email linux_newbies-unsubscr...@yahoogroups.com & you will be removed.Yahoo!
