aptitude: Remove a package and all packages depending on it.
$ aptitude remove ${package}
try on your machine
The command "aptitude remove ${package}" is used to remove a package named "${package}" from a Linux system.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
- "aptitude" is a package management tool available in some Linux distributions. It is used to install, update, and remove packages.
- "remove" is the action specified to indicate that we want to remove a package.
- "${package}" is a placeholder that represents the name of the package you want to remove. You should replace "${package}" with the actual name of the package you want to remove.
When you execute this command, aptitude will search for the specified package and remove it from your system, along with any dependencies that are no longer needed.
