Factor-packman:pkg-uninstall

From Zen/-/ackers

The pkg-uninstall command is used to remove a specific package from the Factor installation.

The pkg-uninstall word has the following signature:

   pkg-uninstall ( pkg-name seq -- )

   :: pkg-name: the name of the package to remove as a string.
   :: seq: a sequence (list) of options to be used by the pkg-uninstall word.

This is a potentially dangerous operation and may result in destabilizing your Factor installation. For this reason core libraries are not uninstallable. That is, any library that you did not install using the package manager can NOT be uninstalled using the package manager.

This command removes the package from the Factor installation and can also remove the package from the cache.

This command does perform dependency checking and warns the user of any installed packages that are dependent on the package-to-be-removed BEFORE actually removing the package. The user can then continue to remove the package or cancel the operation.
