How do I uninstall a program under Linux? Specifically, I'm trying to uninstall StarOffice. Thanks! :confused:

I don't currently have StarOffice installed on my computer under Linux, but, if I remember correctly, there is an Uninstall script that works very nicely. Check the main directory of where you installed StarOffice. ( Normally, it's SOMEDIRECTORYNAME/office52 )

Check www.sun.com (http://www.sun.com) to see if there is any information on there.

P.S. While this whole 'uninstall' question is in there air - how do I uninstall programs that I installed from source? Unlike RPM's, there is no program that can remove the program correctly. I don't just delete the program and its corresponding files, do I?
