How to remove MySQL Workbench 5.2 in ubuntu unity?


I have just download the .deb and installed it. It works. Now i want to uninstall it.

I have tried:

  • sudo apt-get remove mysql-workbench, but it says "E: Unable to locate package mysql-workbench".
  • Go to the Software manager, but it's not between the installed apps.
  • Execute again the .deb, but it doesn't give the option to uninstall it.

I reboot my pc after installing it.

Any idea?

Javier.


Solution

  • It is very simple: If you have the .deb file in place run:

    sudo dpkg -r workbench.deb
    

    otherwise simply delete the installation directory of the workbench, this should be sufficient.
