What about
sudo apt-get remove ros-electric-*
?
I tried that with Fuerte and it worked. I also did sudo apt-get autoremove ros-fuerte-*, which I'm not sure is necessary.
You don't need to uninstall ROS. You can install ROS Electric alongside ROS Fuerte, and call the appropriate setup script in your ~/.bashrc (or equivalent) file.
thanks for the answer Piyush~ within .bashrc file i have "source /opt/ros/fuerte/setup.bash" "export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=~/ros_workspace:/opt/ros/fuerte/share:/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks" "export ROS_WORKSPACE=~/ros_workspace". Approriate setup will be replacing "fuerte" with "electric"?
and just curious.. if i want to uninstall ros for some reason,, how can i uninstall it? is there some sort of installer taking care of uninstalling ros? or should i remove the entire "opt" directory by "rmdir" command?
Correct environment setup for Fuerte is here: http://ros.org/wiki/fuerte/Installation/Ubuntu#fuerte.2BAC8-Installation.2BAC8-DebEnvironment.Environment_setup
@Seungeun Lee: Yes. Instead of "export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=~/ros_workspace:/opt/ros/fuerte/share:/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks" use "export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=~/ros_workspace:${ROS_PACKAGE_PATH". The setup scripts sets the default package path already. Then you just have to change the first line.
