apt-get remove --help

[Siju George <sgeorge.ml@gmail.com>]

hi all,

I removed a postgresql package using

#apt-get remove postgresql

but it didnot remove all the files.

I want to change the data directory location during installation.

but now it does not ask me where it should install the database but
installs it in the same place as before.

on top of that I had manually removed some files named psql after I
uninstalled postgresql using

#apt-get remove postgresql

so mow after installing with

#apt-get install postgresql

the database does not start because these files are not there???

how can I cleanup Postgresql completely from my system and start afresh??

Thankyou so much

kind regards

Siju
