    [SOLVED] how to uninstall extra LibreOffice?

    I have two versions of Libre office, 7.5 and 24.8

    I tried running sudo apt purge libreoffice-* && sudo apt autoremove --purge
    and it claimed to remove a pile of stuff but I still have both versions listed in Applications menu.
    (and yes, both versions still run)
    The "Discover" tool lists all the (flatpak?) LibreOffice apps as ready to install... so Im guessing that what was cleaned up when I did the apt purge?

    How to uninstall stuff in general? I've been looking around and various bits of LibreOffice 7.4, 7.5 and 24.8 are laying around in /opt/ etc.. but I can't see any onvious place where the whole package is located .
    Is there an uninstaller script somewhere?

    There won't be any one place for things, as deb type packages put things into their respective (and confusing) places. They will be in multiple different directories. So will flatpaks and Snaps

    The current LO in Noble is 24.2.7. and the most current-est from PPAs or Flatpak/snap will be 24.8.4 The 7.5 version I assume is from another external source? Noble came with a higher version, and even if upgrading from a previous release would be 7.6 or earlier, depending on the upgrade path


    But let's see what you have for deb packages (managed with apt)

    This will list any LO-related packages still around
    Code:
    apt search libreoffice | grep installed
    ​

    For flatpak
    Code:
    flatpak list | grep libre
    For snaps:
    Code:
    snap list | grep libre

      thanks for the assistance!

      Code:
      apt search libreoffice | grep installed

WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts.

      Code:
      flatpak list | grep libre
Command 'flatpak' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo apt install flatpak

​
      and finally

      Code:
      snap list | grep libre
​
      (returned no results)

      --===

      And that's steered me in the right direction.
      I just ran sudo apt purge libreoffice7.5* && sudo apt autoremove --purge
      and that has removed the 7.5 app from my menus :-)
