Acroread deinstalled -files left behind

[Miax]

I installed acroread9 from ports, but unfortunately it was unstable for my system. So I have deleted this package using # make deinstall clean, but it seems that it was not correctly deleted. There are still acroread9 and acroread8 files in /usr/local/bin. How could I clean this package?

Are you sure these files aren't installed by print/acroreadwrapper? You can try:

% pkg_info -W /usr/local/bin/acroread9*

to find out and also have a look in /var/db/pkg/.

Also, you might want to take a look at graphics/xpdf.

If

pkg_info | grep acroread

return none results, that means that acroread is deinstalled.
Also you can deinstall it with

pkg_delete -f [B]pkg[/B]

Where pkg is the exact output of the first command

If

pkg_info | grep acroread

return none results, that means that acroread is deinstalled.

% pkg_info -Ix acroread
is faster.

Also you can deinstall it with

pkg_delete -f [B]pkg[/B]

Where pkg is the exact output of the first command

But don't do that, because using the -f (force) flag with pkg_delete(1) without very good reason can leave other ports missing dependencies.

Yes you're right. It was from acroreadwrapper. Thank you.
