[SLE] Ximian uninstall?

Hi, Does anyone know how to do a complete removal of Ximian gnome without removing each of its packages by hand?

What I did to remove helix was a: rpm -qa | grep helix This will display all of the packages that have helix in the name. GNOME was kind enough to do that. You should make sure sure you don't need the package before uninstalling. Another trick is to go to /opt/gnome or wherever gnome is installed and type: rpm -qf The result will display the package that it was installed from. And you can just uninstall with: rpm -e <package name> or if there are unresolved dependencies: rpm -e --nodeps <package name> But be aware that when Ximian was installed, it may have replaced some packages that you will need, so don't use --nodeps carelessly.

Thanks! _Nick
