I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 32bit.

I downloaded utserver.tar.gz file today from utorrent.com and converted it into deb file using alien by sudo alien -d utserver.tar.gz. It worked well and I installed it using the terminal.

But I couldn't find the app in my app list. I tried installing it through Ubuntu Software Center and reinstalled it but it didn't work. Then I tried libtorrent from Ubuntu Software Center and after it was installed, the same thing happened!

No sign of them either in my app list or in the "installed" option of the software center.

How can I uninstall them?

  • μTorrent currently gives a server, not a client. You are not supposed to download torrents, but to create and spread. If you want a client just do sudo apt-get install transmission

To remove utserver and libtorrent you can run:

sudo dpkg -r utserver

sudo apt-get remove libtorrent14

To remove alien run:

sudo apt-get remove alien

Remember to do:

sudo apt-get autoremove

in case some packages are still installed and you don't need them.
