Nope.
Just:
sudo apt autoremove
will do.
Then run the rm commands. After that, there should be nothing left of gnucash’s
prior installation.

You can run the dpkg command. I don’t suspect it will remove anything extra. If
not, then you can proceed with the rm commands. You might want to take a look
at those directories. It’s possible they are now empty, but the directories
were not removed. (It seems /etc/gnucash is gone now however)
This was the output.

Dennis,
sudo apt list --installed | grep gnucash
will give you a list of any gnucash packages installed with the Ubuntu package
manager. If you don’t see gnucash listed, you built it from source. (I still

Dennis,
If you use the --purge switch with apt remove i.e.
sudo apt-get remove --purge gnucash
it should remove those configuration files in /usr/etc and /usr/include
and /usr/share files as well. A post on AskUbuntu indicates that the
--purge switch does not remove configuration and data files

I read up on uninstalling programs and about the - -purge command but didn’t
know how to combine it with the dbkg command.
To be honest, I don’t remember how I installed it gnucash on that machine.

Dennis,
As dpkg tells you, only the config files are on the system. Those are not
removed by a ‘remove’ command, you need to purge as the command response
advises.
Try ONE of the following: (as far as I’m aware, these three produce identical
results in this case)
sudo apt purge gnucash
sudo
I was able to use the remove feature in Ubuntu Software. however after
I ran that, I did the whereis gnucash and this is the output.
dennis@dennis-XPS-8500:~$ whereis gnucash
gnucash: /etc/gnucash /usr/include/gnucash /usr/share/gnucash
I then did
sudo apt-get remove gnucash

It is probbaly a good idea to uninstall the previous build of 2.6.x before
upgrading. With the changes between 2.6 and 3.1 there may have been changes
in the libraries/library names such that some older libraries may not
necessarilybe overwritten.
How to remove it will depend upon how you
Do I follow the same directions to upgrade Gnucash 2.6.x to 3.1 as I did to
compile gnucash 3.1.
I have another desktop that is running Ubuntu 16.04LTS and want to get it up to
speed on to 3.1. I’m assuming it will just overwrite the existing install,
or do I need to uninstall 2.6.x?
