A question about `aptitude purge' (was: Replacing a Debian package with the original source package)

2009-06-04 Thread Rodolfo Medina
I did: # aptitude purge mplayer . After that, the bash completion was still working for the `mplayer' command, and besides the ~/.mplayer directory was still there. Does this mean that not *all* the configuration stuff was removed, as supposed `aptitude purge' to do? Thanks Rodolfo -- To U

Replacing a Debian package with the original source package

2009-06-03 Thread Rodolfo Medina
Hi. In my Debian system I have Mplayer that came with Debian and want to replace with its svn version, recommended by Mplayer developers. What shall I do in order to remove the old one? Will an `apt-get purge' be enough? Or just remove the binary file? Thanks for any help Rodolfo -- To UNSU
