Hi,
I installed IBM Lotus Symphony; it said the install was succesful, yet when trying to run it, nothing happens. Then I’m uninstalling using Yast, and it got blocked; it stayed on “5%” Eliminating Symphony… The cancel button does not work.
If I kill the process, would there be a way to have this app correctly uninstalled?
I dunno this app … but you could, find out its name first with that command:
rpm -qa | grep -i symphony
assuming it has ‘symphony’ (case insensitive) in its name.
Once you know the name, deinstall the package with:
zypper rm packagename
Watch for error messages.
As I noticed that you mentionned wine in another post … is “symphony” not a Windows application? (!)
is this the same machine that you downgraded from 11.3 to 11.2 ( and kept the SAME 11.3 HOME folder )
what else is 11.3 on that 11.2 box ??

I executed “rpm -qa” and no “symphony” was found; can I assume its gone then?

Nope, it is a linux app; an rpm file I downloaded from IBM site.

Yes, it is

I formated root with 11.2, and 11.3 home remained with Thunerbird data, and configuration of software like Chrome, pidgin, banshee, etc. I reinstalled all that software and its working fine (extept Wine, for which I opened another thread)
