Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[Dennis Powless]

Sorry about the mess.  It finally worked.  I was able to delete what I
needed.   Thanks for all your help.

I then installed 3.5 from the repos on 19.04 (thought it was going to be
3.4) NICE surprise, indeed.

Version: 3.5
Build ID: 3.5+(2019-03-30)
Finance::Quote: 1.47

I like having the newer version of GC, but the LTS only has the older
versions of GC, so I upgraded to 19.04 and then GC too.

Thanks,

Dennis

Will run it.

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[John Ralls]

Locate uses a database that's generated periodically (typically weekly) from 
cron. If you've deleted files since the last time it updated the database 
you'll get files that aren't there any more. You can run 
  sudo locate.updatedb
to regenerate. It scans all of storage traversing filesystem mounts so be 
prepared for it to take a long time.

Also notice that locate matches every path matching the pattern and if the 
pattern contains no globbing characters locate treats it as *pattern*, i.e. it 
matches any path with "pattern" (or in your instant case, "gnucash") anywhere 
in it.

I already told you how to delete all of the gnucash-installed files in .local:

find ~/.local -name gnucash -o -name *gnc* -exec rm -rf {} \;

John Ralls

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[John Ralls]

So you built in the parent directory of the sources. Not exactly recommended 
but at least it's  not the source directory itself.

What files are left?

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

No, cmake/cmake_uninstall.cmake.in is a source file so that's your source 
directory.

try
  locate install_manifest.txt

to find your build directory.

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

I was able to run make uninstall on the Applications directory.

The terminal completed the task.

However, there seems to be still files hanging around.

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[Dennis Powless]

dennis@dennisLaptop1:~$ locate cmake_uninstall.cmake
/home/dennis/.local/share/Trash/files/gnucash-maint/cmake/
cmake_uninstall.cmake.in
/home/dennis/Applications/cmake_uninstall.cmake

Can I then run the cmake uninstall from this location?

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[Dennis Powless]

This is the begging of the entire terminal on the build.

dennis@dennis-HP-Pavilion-Laptop-15-cc0xx:~$ cd /home/dennis/Applications

dennis@dennis-HP-Pavilion-Laptop-15-cc0xx:~/Applications$ mkdir
build-gnucash-3.1

dennis@dennis-HP-Pavilion-Laptop-15-cc0xx:~/Applications$ ls

build-gnucash-3.1 gnucash-3.1

dennis@dennis-HP-Pavilion-Laptop-15-cc0xx:~/Applications$ cmake
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/dennis/.local/home/dennis/Applications/gnucash-3.1

CMake Error: The source directory "/home/dennis/Applications" does not
appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.

Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.



Eventually, I was able to build GC  I was VERY confused on the cmake
command and went off of suggestions from this list back then.

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[John Ralls]

David,

You're right, I misread his cmake command line. I should have said `rm -rf 
~/.local`. 

Of course that might also have collateral damage if he's installed other things 
into .local.

  find ~/.local -name *gnucash* -o -name *gnc* -exec rm -rf {} \;
  
will safely remove everything GnuCash installs with the possible exception of 
libgwengui-gtk3.so if the system doesn't provide it.

John Ralls

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[John Ralls]

Adrien,

Yeah, that got me too because the line wrapped between .local and the second 
/home/dennis. There's a space there so the install prefix is 
/home/dennis/.local and the source directory is 
/home/dennis/Applications/gnucash-3.1.

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

Curious about that cmake line...

Was that: /home/dennis/.local/home/dennis/Applications/gnucash-3.1?

Looks like an extra nested /home/dennis in there or am I reading that wrong?

Or just
  rm -rf ~/Applications/gnucash-3.1

You could even leave it there and just remove ~/Applications/gnucash-3.1/bin 
from $PATH and/or delete the desktop file if that's how you launch GnuCash. 
Installing GnuCash from apt will put everything in /usr like all of the other 
programs on the machine and install a new desktop file pointing there.

Probably not.  Since you gave a full path (not relative) to the source,
your build location could be nearly anywhere.  Specifically, it would be
where you were at when the cmake was issued. 

Usually it is in a "build-xxx" folder just under Applications (next door
to gnucash-3.1).  However, some use a '.build' folder inside the source
code (dpkg_buildpackage does that).

You will need to find all the 'make' files and see which one contains
the build for 3.1.

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

I have that file in the build directory.. build-gnucash-3.1

*The error says that "make" is on root's path but not dennis's and that

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[John Ralls]

Dennis,

The error says that "make" is on root's path but not dennis's and that it's a 
link to /usr/bin/cmake and that doesn't exist. That's a problem with your 
system and you need to clean it up.

When `make uninstall` fails check to see if install_manifest.txt exists in the 
build directory. If it doesn't then you'll have to uninstall GnuCash manually 
as David explained. if it is there then you can run the command that make 
uninstall would: `xargs rm < install_manifest.txt`.

Regards,
John Ralls

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[David Cousens]

Denis

$cd  ~/Applications/build-gnucash-3.1
$make uninstall

should do it since you installed in HOME/.local  HOME is just /home/
where  is your username on the system. I don't install there but use
/usr/local for system wide installation not individual user so I am not sure
of the exact details of how GnuCash installs in HOME/.local.

If it doesn't then you can remove the installation manually. If the build
directory is intact it will have a file install_manifest.txt which will list
where all the files are installed to. 

All files will be under the .local hidden directory. Uee Ctrl-H in your file
manager to display hidden directories. I think that works on Ubuntu as well
as Linux Mint.

Check what files are present in HOME/.local.  How you proceed will depend if
you have installed any other software in this location. If you are lucky it
will possibley have a file gnucash which has subdirectories like bin, share,
lib, etc.  If this is the case then deleting the gnucash directory and
contents will completely remove the gnucash application with no problems.  

If it isn't in a gnucash directory it will probably just have bin,share,
lib,etc directories directly under HOME/.local  . In this case you will need
to check whether any other applications are installed. Chances are if
HOME/.local/bin doesn't contain anything but the gnucash program you are OK,
but also check the lib and share directories to see if there are anything
other than gnucash related files there.  If there are no other applications
installed there then it is safe to just delete all the directories under
HOME/.local.

If not then you could use the install_manifest.txt as a guide  and manually
delete them one by one to ensure you don't delete anything else you might
need.

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[Dennis Powless]

These are the commands I ran to install gnucash.

cmake -DWITH_AQBANKING=OFF -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/dennis/.local
/home/dennis/Applications/gnucash-3.1

cmake

cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/.local ../gnucash-3.


This is where gnucash is located.
dennis@dennis-XPS-8500:~$ whereis gnucash
gnucash: /home/dennis/.local/bin/gnucash

I tried the steps in the article.
dennis@dennis-XPS-8500:~/Applications/build-gnucash-3.1$ sudo make uninstall
make: /usr/bin/cmake: Command not found
Makefile:3688: recipe for target 'cmake_check_build_system' failed
make: *** [cmake_check_build_system] Error 127

dennis@dennis-XPS-8500:~/Applications/gnucash-3.1$ sudo make uninstall
[sudo] password for dennis:
make: *** No rule to make target 'uninstall'.  Stop.

Where did you do the build?  Do the "make uninstall" from that
directory/folder.

Looks like ~/Applications/build-gnucash-3.1 is your build directory,
make uninstall while in that location.

Not there.  The build directory where the make file is located.

That's the nature of a local build.  I'm getting into the habit of
building to a .deb file and installing from there.

Re: [GNC] Uninstall GC

[ref...@gmx.net]

   If you installed from source, you need to uninstall, yes. Otherwise you
   have a potential mess.
   Where did you install into?
   I keep all programmes I compile myself under /usr/local/ which keeps it
   clean and easy to separate out if necessary.
