Trying to remove program flmsg and am getting message “unable to locate package”












0















Running Ubuntu 18.04 Dell Latitude E6420 8 GB memory



The program flmsg shows when I list the directory, as shown below:



howard@dell-Latitude-E6420:~/Ham radio programs/FLDIGI$ ls
flamp-2.2.04.tar.gz
fldigi-4.1.00
fldigi-4.1.00.tar.gz
flmsg-4.0.8
flmsg-4.0.8.tar.gz
flrig-1.3.42
flrig-1.3.42.tar.gz


When I do a sudo apt remove flmsg-4.0.8 it returns:



howard@dell-Latitude-E6420:~/Ham radio programs/FLDIGI$ sudo apt remove flmsg-4.0.8
[sudo] password for howard:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package flmsg-4.0.8
E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'flmsg-4.0.8'
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'flmsg-4.0.8'


What am I doing wrong?

ls is a command that lists the contents of the directory. From your outputs it seems that the flmsg-4.0.8 is merely a file that exists in ~/Ham radio programs/FLDIGI/ folder not an APT package that is installed. So, deleting those files might help. You can delete that files using some file manager like Nautilus or by running rm -r flmsg* in terminal.
