POST

Ok I can't get this uninstall script for Americas Army:Operations to do didly squat. So how do I go about removing this game? I thought about just doing a rm-rf but I'm sure linux has to be somewhat like windows, as in, it has to put some kind of entries whereas windows adds registry entries. And any windows user knows entries in your registry to programs/games that don't exists are not good things to have. The best I can do in way of info is give you guys the tidbit of what's in the uninstall shell script.

The following is contained within before mentioned uninstall script..


#! /bin/sh
#### UNINSTALL SCRIPT - Generated by SetupDB 1.0 #####
DetectARCH()
{
status=1
case `uname -m` in
i?86) echo "x86"
status=0;;
*) echo "`uname -m`"
status=0;;
esac
return $status
}

if which loki-uninstall > /dev/null 2>&1; then
UNINSTALL=loki-uninstall
else
UNINSTALL="$HOME/.loki/installed/bin/`uname -s`/`DetectARCH`/uninstall"
if [ ! -x "$UNINSTALL" ]; then
echo Could not find a usable uninstall program. Aborting.
exit 1
fi
fi
"$UNINSTALL" "/home/ghost/armyops/.manifest/armyops.xml" "$1"

Well we certainly don't get paid and Linux doesn't have a registry. So usually a rm -rf all the files it installs should work.

Also on a side note, please try to provide better and more helpful thread titles that describe your question/problem, etc. Thanks.

Thanx, yeah that's what I thought..I believe that I may just come down to that if I don't get another option soon. I'm low on space and I have another game to test out. And I don't have enough free space atm to try it. And as for my title if you just made 50 threads and over 200 post in one day.. well um I think you might have trouble coming up with a subject title as well. Especially after a long hard day of NOTHING but errors and problems and waiting and more errors and problems.

Well then with that many, you should have had plenty of ideas to use as a thread title then.. :p
