Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] clean uninstall of Gnuradio and Pybombs

[Martin Braun]

/usr/local is the default directory on Linux to install your own stuff, but we recommend you simply put your GNU Radio installation into your home directory (and this is the default if you use pybombs). This means setting env variables such as LDPATH but pybombs does that for you.

As for uninstalling, rm-ing all your install dirs should be fine, but make sure you really get all those files.

Welcome to GNU Radio, and have fun!

Hello all,
I am very new to gnuradio, so please excuse a basic question.
I managed to install pybombs and gnuradio on my Ubuntu platform in several attempts. Various permissions issues got in the way and I ended up with multiple copies of the software in different directories, some more complete than others. Is there a clean way to uninstall the software and start from scratch?
Is doing a recursive rm on these extra directories sufficient or is there more to removing the packages?
Where do people typically install, under /usr/local? If so, all subsequent uses of pybombs and gnuradio require sudo? If using pybombs, will the entire gnuradio package also be under the pybombs directory tree?

thank you in advance!
Rachel
