Hi;

I would like to uninstall mozilla. I ran dpkg -l | grep mozilla and got these package names:

pi mozilla-browse 1.3-4 Mozilla Web Browser - core and browser
ii mozilla-locale 1.3.0-3 Mozilla German Language/Region Package.
ii mozilla-xmlter 1.3-4 Mozilla Web Browser - XML enabled

However, when I type these package names after dpkg -P
I get told these packages do not exist.

How can I uninstall these packages?

Steve

Your not getting the full filename with your dpkg command.You could try apt-get remove mozilla* but be sure and read what it's going to remove before you type "yes".

To get the full filename try this
"COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l |grep mozilla |awk '{print $2}'

or even better make a list of all your pkgs with full filenames
"COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l |awk '{print $2}' >pkgs.txt"
then read your list with "less pkgs.txt"
