guix-package: Remove a package.
$ guix package -r ${package_name}
try on your machine

The command "guix package -r ${package_name}" is used in the Guix package manager to remove a specified package from the system.

Explanation:

  • "guix package" is the command to manage packages in the Guix package manager.
  • "-r" is an option that stands for "remove." It instructs Guix to remove the package.
  • "${package_name}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the package you want to remove. You need to replace it with the name of the package you want to uninstall.

So by running this command and replacing "${package_name}" with the name of the package, you will instruct Guix to remove that package from your system.

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.
