Why uninstall via Synaptic? If he manually installed from source (I assume he did not make a .deb) then I would think that manually re-installing from source and then uninstalling from source might work better (assuming the install script has an uninstall option). That will clean up any files that might have installed to places other (e.g. /usr/share) than the main install (/usr/local). Not sure if CPython does install other places. sudo make install sudo make uninstall? ~Ramit This email is confidential and subject to important disclaimers and conditions including on offers for the purchase or sale of securities, accuracy and completeness of information, viruses, confidentiality, legal privilege, and legal entity disclaimers, available at http://www.jpmorgan.com/pages/disclosures/email. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
