Remove cassowary from host #117

Open skjerns opened 1 year ago

skjerns commented 1 year ago

What is the correct way to remove cassowary from my system?

I removed some components, but there are a lot of errors popping up in my journalctl from cassowary, so there seems to be some parts in the system left

What steps need to be done to completely remove cassowary from my system and revert the changes made to virt manager/QEMU?

Eventually I would like to start with a fresh install but before would like to completely remove things

Not sure if this completely removes all traces of cassowary, but what I did to remove cassowary from my GNU/linux host is:

pip uninstall cassowary
rm ~/.config/autostart/cassowary_linux_bg_service.desktop
rm ~/.local/share/applications/cassowary_linux.desktop

To revert the changes made to virt manager/QEMU you can edit or restore the /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf config file. Purging and reinstalling the package to restore it back to the default settings probably also works.

I wish there was a FAQ section or uninstall script to address this issue..
