18.7 Legacy Series / How to 'purge' a package?
« on: August 26, 2018, 09:53:16 am »
Hello,
What is the correct way to 'purge' a package? I've tinkered with the Suricata config files a bit too much and want to reinstall the package, giving a clean slate. However, using the webui just uninstalls it, keeping the config files. As far as I could find, pkg-delete doesn't have an option for deleting a package including the configuration files that shipped with it.
Are you perhaps able to shine a light on this?
Thank you
