NAME

removepkg - remove installed system packages.  

SYNOPSIS

removepkg [ -h, --help ] [ -w, --report ] pkgname [ pkgname2, ... ]  

DESCRIPTION

removepkg removes any packages whose names match the package names given from the command-line. This performs (essentially) the same action as would pkg remove [ pkgname, pkgname2, ... ].

removepkg will not delete any files which are 'owned' by another package, so please make sure that no two packages you create will install files over each other.  

OPTIONS

-h, --help
When this option is specified, removepkg will print its own usage instructions and exit.
-w, --report
This will cause removepkg to only generate a report of the proposed removal instead of actually removing any files. This can be useful to see what files will be removed.
