dtuinstr opened a new issue, #9404:
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/9404
### Apache NetBeans version
Apache NetBeans 30
### What happened
The README.html file (in top-level directory after unzipping
netbeans-30-bin.zip) states:
> To uninstall the IDE (Solaris OS or Linux)
> Use the provided uninstaller found at
/netbeans-install-directory/uninstall.sh. Do not manually delete the
directories and files.
However, no such file exists in the install directory. Manual deletion of
files seems the only option, despite the warning not to do so.
The same problem occurs in netbeans-29.
### Language / Project Type / NetBeans Component
NetBeans README.html file
### How to reproduce
1. Unzip the `netbeans-{29,30}-bin.zip` file. In the top level of the
unzipped files:
2. Inspect the `README.html` file to see the above-mentioned text.
3. Use `find . -iname "*uninstall*"` to verify that no uninstall utility is
present.
### Did this work correctly in an earlier version?
No / Don't know
### Operating System
Linux Mint 22.1 Xia
### JDK
NA: this occurs before NetBeans is even started.
### Apache NetBeans packaging
Apache NetBeans binary zip
### Anything else
- It would be good to have instructions for manually uninstalling on Linux
if an uninstaller is not provided.
- It would be good to have documentation in the readme for upgrading from a
major version to the next (from 29 to 30 in this case). The `Help | Check for
Updates` menu option in 29 did not report that 30 was available.
