can someone help?
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:45:47
ok, how do I remove emacs 24 for good?
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:45:55
it keeps managing to reinstall itself
sysadmin 2017-01-26 15:46:07
hey guys
rypervenche 2017-01-26 15:46:09
excelsiora: Are you purging it?

vsphereclient.vmware.com/vsphereclient/2/3/0/6/3/5/6/VMware-viclient-all-5.1.0-2306356.exe
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:46:38
after I run .configure (opts), make, sudo checkinstall - it manages to replace the new one I build daily.

sysadmin, you need to ask vmware for product support. not an ubuntu product or issue.

cfhowlett 2017-01-26 15:47:11
sysadmin, asked and answered
rypervenche 2017-01-26 15:47:17
excelsiora: How are you removing it currently?
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:47:41
sudo apt-get remove emacssomethingorother
sysadmin 2017-01-26 15:47:55
okay
sysadmin 2017-01-26 15:48:01
it is human right
rypervenche 2017-01-26 15:48:04
excelsiora: Try using "purge" instead of "remove", but we should look into how it's getting installed again.
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:50:01
rypervenche: thanks, seemed to work
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:50:19
did it for emacs24, it said it did for emacs24*
rypervenche 2017-01-26 15:50:25
Yep yep.
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:50:53
ran configure... without the args... doh
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:52:37
but it seemed to report the correct config anyways
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:52:42
why would it do that?
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:52:57
did emacs change it?
excelsiora 2017-01-26 15:53:04
I just did a git pull...
rypervenche 2017-01-26 15:57:16
excelsiora: You're installing emacs from source?
excelsiora 2017-01-26 16:01:10
rypervenche: yes - so if it comes back, I'll try a purge of emacs* and then just rebuild and reinstall
gnomethrower 2017-01-26 16:01:34
rypervenche: Nope, not new - been using Ubuntu since 6.06 :)
excelsiora 2017-01-26 16:01:44
do I need to run something after git pull to get to head?
gnomethrower 2017-01-26 16:01:54
sorry, been AFK wrangling SaltStack states :D
excelsiora 2017-01-26 16:03:25
rypervenche: I've had a devil of a time getting the dependencies right, and I'm sure I still need to add more things to my configure flags.
rypervenche 2017-01-26 16:03:41
gnomethrower: That answers that question, lol.
rypervenche 2017-01-26 16:03:51
excelsiora: Why do you need it from source?
vivi 2017-01-26 16:03:58
marvic5
doublejane 2017-01-26 16:04:46
excelsiora: using ldd may help resolve the dependency
vivi 2017-01-26 16:04:49
