Uninstall script #7

Closed Aakash-kaushik closed 3 years ago

Aakash-kaushik commented 3 years ago

The Uninstall script when executed proceeds to remove almost everything including Firefox, shell and the system DE parts

natask commented 3 years ago

It prompts before removal does it not? I made the uninstall script exhaustive (to the extent that packages aren't bulit-in) and optional to hand control to the user. I believe it is the removal of one of these packages that prompts what you are referring to

python3 python3-pip python-pip

looking over again

I may reduce it to only python3-pip python-pip

because python3 is basically built-in on most common distros. and remove git from install/uninstall list as well because people installing would be using git already.

Hey, i am not sure which package does that because i was totally in a hurry, and yup you can totally remove git from the install and uninstall scripts because that is also pre packaged with the most common distros

please confirm if you are getting the same issue on the latest master commit.

Aakash-kaushik commented 3 years ago

Hey, Just checked on Ubuntu 20.10 and with the latest master commit as of now that problem does not exist any more even after accepting to remove everything in uninstall.sh. Thank you !

Feel free to close the issue. I think it was mostly because of the removal of python3, A lot of the component do depend on it and has it as a dependency.
