I installed sublime text3 and 'package manager' also.

In this process, there was an unknown error and the process just stopped.

So I just shut down by force and ran again to complete install.

but in 3seconds, sublime text stopped again and I repeated uninstall - install process.

I think the problem occur when installed package manager ..

so I want to CLEAN UP whole thing about sublime text3 completely and try again. ( I'm new to ubuntu.. so I don't understand why same result is remain after uninstall - reinstall process )

Right now, there is no way to solve no matter how I repeat the process.

please help me!

  • What are you using to install these packages? (commands, PPAs, instructions, etc)

  • Possibly (not unlikely) local settings file of sublime are corrupted. Please remove ~/.config/sublime-text-3, log out and in and try again. Sep 15, 2015 at 16:00

uninstall sublime-text-3 using purge or --purge remove option it will uninstall completely.

if you install sublime-text-installer from this link then uninstall using

sudo apt-get purge sublime-text-installer

or if you downloaded from here then uninstall using command

sudo dpkg -P sublime-text

then remove dependencies if any using command

sudo apt-get autoremove 

then install again if you are getting any problem with your installation method then use this method

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/sublime-text-3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sublime-text-installer

i have tested this on Ubuntu 14.04 .its working for me .

  • Hi, thank you for your reply. I tried your solution but it didn't work. ( result was same.. ) But I figured out the way to solve this problem. In 'config' folder, there were a package records remained. So I moved to that folder and removed that records. After this process, sublime text3 installed ordinarily like first time. Anyway I really appreciate your help! Sep 16, 2015 at 6:43
