Hello all, a few days ago I had to install Java in a laptop in order for a web application to be able to function properly. I followed directions found in the internet (mostly the debian wiki and the Adobe download page). Now I want to uninstall Java and undo all settings to go were I was before all this got started. The installed system is a (rather stock) Debian 7 Wheezy LXDE. I paste here the relevant commands from my bash history (for root and for my user): -88--8 root@debian:/home/jcb# history apt-get install default-jre aptitude search jdk apt-get install default-jre aptitude search java aptitude install java-package make-jpkg /home/jcb/Downloads/jre-8u25-linux-i586.tar.gz aptitude search jre aptitude install openjdk-7-jre aptitude install openjdk-7-jre-lib aptitude install icedtea-7-plugin aptitude uninstall openjdk-7-jre aptitude purge openjdk-7-jre aptitude install openjdk-7-jre-lib icedtea-7-plugin ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/jre/lib/i386/IcedTeaPlugin.so mozilla-javaplugin.so ls -la /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/jre/lib/i386/ cd /etc/alternatives ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/jre/lib/i386/IcedTeaPlugin.so mozilla-javaplugin.so ls -la mozilla-javaplugin.so cd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ ln -s /etc/alternatives/mozilla-javaplugin.so mozilla-javaplugin.so ls -la mozilla-javaplugin.so ln -s /etc/alternatives/mozilla-javaplugin.so mozilla-javaplugin.so cd /home/jcb/Downloads/ mv /home/jcb/Downloads/jdk1.8.0_25 /opt cd /opt/ update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /opt/jdk1.8.0_25/bin/java 1 update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /opt/jdk1.8.0_25/bin/javac 1 update-alternatives --install /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so mozilla-javaplugin.so /opt/jdk1.8.0_25/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so update-alternatives --install /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so mozilla-javaplugin.so /opt/jdk1.8.0_25/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 1 update-alternatives --set java /opt/jdk1.8.0_25/bin/java pdate-alternatives --set javac /opt/jdk1.8.0_25/bin/javac update-alternatives --set javac /opt/jdk1.8.0_25/bin/javac update-alternatives --set mozilla-javaplugin.so /opt/jdk1.8.0_25/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so java -version jcb@debian:~$ history aptitude search jdk su fakeroot make-jpkg /home/jcb/Downloads/jre-8u25-linux-i586.tar.gz -88--8 Thanks in advance Dalios

It would have been far easier to use synaptic, then check the java packages that you wanted and let it install them. A couple of minutes later and you would have been done. Now I want to uninstall Java and undo all settings to go were I was before all this got started. It would have been just as easy to uninstall the packages with synaptic. But, since you opted to do all of those alternatives links by hand, you'll have to delete them yourself.
