I installed python 2.6.6, I already had python which is lower version 2.4 by default. Now I want to remove the python 2.6.6 ? There is no uninstall target and remove procedures from the internet.

I google it out, but no results found for the OEL 5.4,

  • Search all the folders and executable related to python 2.6.6. do an - "rm -rf <files/folder>" for the files and folders. That'll do

  • Yeah my issue solved now, by installing the python in a prefix, I found which files to be deleted, next I deleted those files from the file-system, And I got command not found when executing python command in terminal, so to avoid any further issues to come, I re-installed the python which is in my yum list. Thank you guys.

Compile python 2.6.6 again inside your home folder (with prefix flag) and look at the output. Then, delete the same files that are placed in the system folder.
