  • Thank you for consideration to my question. I uninstall it successfully by using dpkg. Use the following commands dpkg --list (use this to get proper name of package) then use sudo apt-get --purge remove packageName

I uninstall it successfully by using dpkg. Use the following commands dpkg --list (use this command you will get a list of packages install on your system. Find the package you want to delete from list.) then use
sudo apt-get --purge remove packageName (Package name should same as in the list)

In this way you can uninstall any package.

  • The package name is virtualbox, not oracle. sudo apt purge virtualbox* will remove all oracle vmware for any version. Can follow with sudo apt autoremove to remove the libraries/dependencies.
