removing a package

[John Dangler]

I was informed by the rosegarden dev group this morning that the
rosegarden packages in the Ubuntu repositories are way out of date (in
fact the original is more than 10 years old!).

I used apt-get remove --purge rosegarden to remove it so that I could go
and get the latest source and build a .deb for Ubuntu to submit for the
repo's...  The package is fairly large, but I got this on apt-get remove
-

root at croatus:~# apt-get remove --purge rosegarden
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  rosegarden*
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B of archives.
After unpacking 36.9kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? Y
(Reading database ... 118551 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing rosegarden ...

At this point, it should be gone - BUT

root at croatus:~# /usr/bin/rosegarden
Warning : Petal library could not be found in TCLLIBPATH
(/usr/lib/tclmidi /usr/lib/rosegarden/petal )
Not installing Filter Menu

(And the package is running under gnome!)


root at croatus:~# apt-get -s install rosegarden
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  rosegarden
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Inst rosegarden (2.1pl4-2 Ubuntu:6.06/dapper)
Conf rosegarden (2.1pl4-2 Ubuntu:6.06/dapper)

(This shows that apt thinks the package is _really_ gone)

root at croatus:~# apt-get remove --purge rosegarden
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Package rosegarden is not installed, so not removed
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
root at croatus:~#

(This confirms that apt thinks it's gone)

But it's still here!

What did I do wrong in trying to remove it??
