Post subject: "rpm -e" do not remove the program and symbolic link Archived from groups: linux>redhat>install (more info?)
I created a rpm (.spec file) to install a program and create a
symbolic link to it. After I do "rpm -e" to remove the package, the
program and symbolic link still exist, how to fix this problem?
