Removing Java ?

2003-12-12 Thread Richard Shea
Hi - I've got a problem installing the JDK on FreeBSD 4.8 (see
/usr/ports/java/jdk13 - make all dumps - any suggestions ? previous
post for details) and as I don't know how to fix I was thinking that I
might completely uninstall all Java related stuff and start again.

So far I have obtained the Linux JDK, the sources for the JDK and the
FreeBSD patchset for the JDK and done a 'make install'. In fact I've done
a make install several times as the process fell over because certain
dependencies weren't met and so I fixed those and restarted. I've now got
to a point in the make where it just says 'illegal instruction'.

So my question is what's the best way to clean every trace of Java from
the box so I can start again and (maybe) get further this time ?

thanks

(I don't know if this is the _best_ way)
You can
# cd /var/db/pkg
# ls
will give you a list of all packages installed via ports,
sysinstall or pkg_add .
You can remove them by
# pkg_delete package_name
Also have a look at
# man pkg_delete
for force and recursive options.

Good Luck,

Uli.
