how do I delete leftover .pet.specs files?--Solved
Posted: Mon 01 Oct 2012, 05:08
In Wary Puppy 5.3 I have a few leftover files from having un-installed various Pet packages that for whatever reason I decided not to keep. I have tried a number of ways to delete these files but w/o success:
I have searched the Forum and Googled for a solution to this issue, but without any luck so far... I may be wrong, but I don't remember having this problem with other Puppies or versions of Wary...
Help, Help, Help...
Thanks,

- I have used the gui to right-click and delete,
I have dragged the files (kicking and screaming) to the trash bin
I have used the remove command at the terminal,
I have emptied the contents of the files, saved them, then tried to delete them,
I have tried changing the permissions for each offending file,
I have renamed the files with the .txt extension then deleted them,
I even compiled Bleachbit for Wary Puppy 5.3 and attempted to shred the files
