Hi I'm stuck trying to install weewx on a pi 3b+ running bullseye. I used
apt install weewx and went through the configure options but it apparently
didn't like my inputs. Before completing the install it errored out.
I tried sudo dpkg --configure -a and it never worked until I deleted
/var/lib/dpkg/info/weewx*
I would think after deleting that, running apt purge weewx and deleting the
following:
sudo rm -r /etc/weewx
sudo rm -r /var/www/html/weewx
sudo rm -r /var/lib/weewx
sudo rm -r /etc/weewx
sudo rm /etc/default/weewx
sudo rm -r /usr/share/weewx
It would be able to start fresh but that's not the case.
Today I deleted all the above again, did a sudo apt install weewx and had
this output:
pi@k4spbx:~ $ sudo apt install weewx

How do I actually delete all this crap, actually purge and then start fresh?
Thanks.
