Quick safe pet uninstaller script. Finds package with searchword, removes only files; prompts before removing each item.
note: close programs before uninstalling

Usage: "uninstall [searchword]" (if script is saved as "uninstall")

Also good for stripping docs, etc (like from deb installs)

Edit: added option to remove from Puppy Package Manager

1/1/11: added prompt for removing open directories

Code:

#!/bin/bash -a


##  jpeps   Ver 2.0  Jan/2011

## Uninstalls files as listed in /root/.package dir   
## Options:
##           -s            show usr-installed-packages
##           package       default: uninstall with prompts
##           package -f    force: uninstall without prompts
##           package -c    check to see if in use
##           package -s    view package files
##           package [-f] -o  overrides in-use function

FLAG="0"  ## checks if main program is run (vs. a check)

## Function to remove open directories

flagOpen=""
RemOpenDir(){
for item in "$(ls ${OLDPATH})"; do
   if [ "$item" ]; then
     flagOpen="1"

Safer version;
checks /bin files that are in use (displays & exits if in use) before allowing uninstall. (override this function with -o). Check can also be run alone "uninstall [package] -c"
View installed pets with '-s' option.

EDIT: Posted Above.

This looks like what I need to uninstall a KeePassX pet I added to my frugal 511 Puppy on a usb stick but that does not show up in the PM list of installed pets. Since I have not done this kind of thing before and do not want to screw up my settings I am hoping someone could give me a few more details on how to proceed:

I assume I copy > paste the code to Geany, name it and then save it. Presently my Geany (/initrd/mnt/dev_save) opens with "sdb1,vfat,/lupusave-T42Dec10-2.2fs" on the first line. Do I just add it to that? I see the reco to save as "uninstall" and the options so it looks like I just go to Terminal and type in the parameters and it then will run.
Any other tips are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks.


1. Copy and paste into an editor (geany is fine)
2. Save script somewhere in PATH: example: /usr/local/bin/uninstall.
3. Give exec permissions: example:
"cd /usr/local/bin"
"chmod +x ./uninstall"

That should do it! Typing "uninstall -s" should show you installed packages.

Thanks a lot jpeps - worked beautifully with the -f option. I had to go back to manually delete a couple of empty files/folders but that was easy.

Nice piece of creativity that I think should be included in Puppy as a built-in app.

Thanks for testing. Yes, deliberately doesn't delete folders, but tells you which ones so you can get them later if they're app specific.

Thanks for that jpeps, it saved a frugal installation with a wrong xorg .pet I'd installed. Couldn't use X but booted pfix=nox after installing your Uninstall script and ran -s to find the name of the file, then uninstalled it. Re-booted and X started. Most everything was good except I'd inadvertently uninstalled a couple of files needed for GLX. Then ran pfix=clean, and Xorgwizard and everything was back to normal.
