How to uninstall the many haskell packages

pepet79687 · 2020-09-16 17:02:01

I installed haskell a while ago but lost interest. How do I remove the many haskell packages without typing each one by hand?

Here is what I got today when I ran

sudo pacman -Syu

Just remove whatever you actually installed with the -Rsn flag. If you don't remember what you explicitly installed, check:

pacman -Qeq | grep haskell

If you know you don't want anything from haskell anymore, combine the two:

pacman -Qeq | grep haskell | sudo pacman -Rsn -

pepet79687, welcome to the forum. Please edit your post and use [ code ] [ /code ] tags ( without the spaces) around that pacman output.

For me there was always "removing x will break a dependecy of y" error when tried to remove haskell packages.
Had to use also the -c flag and carefully check what it will remove.

pacman -Rsc  $(pacman -Qsq haskell-)
