pkgrm: Remove an installed package.
$ pkgrm ${package_name}
try on your machine

The command "pkgrm ${package_name}" is used to remove a package from a UNIX or Linux system. Here's an explanation of each part of the command:

  • "pkgrm" is the main command, which is short for "package remove". It is the command used to uninstall or remove software packages from a system.
  • "${package_name}" is a placeholder for the name of the package you want to remove. You would replace "${package_name}" with the actual name of the package you want to remove. For example, if you want to remove the package named "example-package", you would use "pkgrm example-package".

When this command is executed, it will uninstall the specified package from the system, removing all its files and configurations. It is important to note that this command may require root or administrator privileges to execute successfully.

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.
