Hi, had a bit of a look for how to remove various src rpms that I've
messed with when trying to track bags etc. I though they may be tracked
in the rpm database, but google nor maximum rpm do not seem to have an
answer.
a src rpm is little more than a cpio archive, they are not 'installed'
as such, but unpacked into a location defined using the %_topdir rpm
macro (defaults to /usr/src/redhat)
I can see they got installed under /usr/src/redhat, but what is the most
foolproof way to get rid of particular ones ?
rm :)
A src rpm will have put files in
/usr/src/redhat/SPECS and /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
if you have run rpmbuild commands, there may also be files in
/usr/src/redhat/BUILD
as well as the SRPMS and RPMS/<arch> subdirectories
removing the apprpriate files from these dirs will 'uninstall' the
source packages.
