How do you do a proper complete uninstall of libraries in Fedora without the package manager deleting shit I need?

It's less of a pain in the fucking ass to clean the Windows registry

feels good man

Wait, so is dependency hell not a thing on Gentoo or something?

>Anyone else feel this feel?

No.

Well you could just remove them again after. Anything with a -dev is normally safe to remove. But you are assuming you will never compile anything ever again. And besides, it's at most a few megs. Why the fuck would you care? Get out more, freak.

I know the feel, it's one of the few things that annoys me on Linux

>>545956

Dependency hell is definitely one of the big things stopping me from using Linux full time

You might as well download every single fucking dev library on the repo if you're just going to have a bunch randomly scattered everywhere that you never use

Not for most definitions of the term that apply to Debian etc

Not an issue with the most practical Linux distros.

For example, the one with a community driven User Repository.

I didn't realize your mom was a Linux distro

What is emerge --depclean?

>>545968

Something that removes packages you don't want it to remove and is also not available for my distro

>>545971

Hah, if only.

>>545921

This is why /usr/local exists.

Also, ./configure --prefix=$HOME/$program and uninstall with a mere rm -rf $HOME/$program. Fuck off

I'm in a good mood, so I'm dropping this

How to wipe your ass v0.1

Gentoo:

su -c "emerge -uDN @world; emerge --depclean -a; eix-test-obsolete"

Debian and friends:

su -c "apt-get autoclean; apt-get autoremove"

Void:

sudo xbps-remove -Oo

Arch:

sudo pacman -Rsun $(pacman -Qtdq)

Fedora:

Note: pls stop being redhats little bitch

sudo package-cleanup --all --leaves

And if you still think there's stray files, run bleachbit

op confirmed faggot for not wiping his ass
