aura: Remove a package and its dependencies.
$ aura --remove --recursive --unneeded ${package_name}
try on your machine

This command is used to remove a package and all of its dependencies (if they are no longer needed) from a system using the package manager "aura".

Here's the breakdown of the command:

  • aura is the name of the package manager.
  • --remove specifies that the action to be performed is package removal.
  • --recursive indicates that the package manager should recursively remove all dependencies of the specified package as well.
  • --unneeded specifies that the package should only be removed if it is no longer needed by any other package.
  • ${package_name} refers to the name of the package which you want to remove.

By running this command, the specified package and its unneeded dependencies will be removed from your system, freeing up disk space and potentially resolving any conflicts or issues related to those packages.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
