Minitube removal

Question

I tried to install minitube using the commands in noobslab. I couldn't do it because of the problem in obtaining API key. Now, I want to get rid of every modification done by the following commands in my computer.

The commands are written below:-

wget -O minitube.sh http://drive.noobslab.com/data/apps/minitube/minitube.sh
chmod +x minitube.sh
source ./minitube.sh 

Here is list of errors I get on using the command sudo make install after changing the directory.

Answer 1

This script adds:

1. A set of dependencies
2. The source code for minitube

Removal of both of these can be accomplished with some care.

1. Dependencies

The script downloads dependencies with the following command:

sudo apt-get install build-essential qt4-dev-tools libphonon-dev \
libqt4-sql-sqlite phonon-backend-gstreamer phonon-backend-gstreamer

But you will have found that each of these dependencies has dragged in many more related files. As well some of these files might be used by other applications on your system.

However you could try removing the files above by simply replacing sudo apt-get install with sudo apt-get remove in the above code block.

My advice: leave the dependencies in place, this is the safe option...

2. Source Code

The script downloads the source code as a file called master.zip and decompresses it to a directory named minitube-master. From there the code is compiled and installed. These files should be: ~/master.zip and ~/minitube-master.

So to remove the files you can try these following commands in sequence:

cd ~/minitube-master
sudo make uninstall
cd
rm -rf ~/minitube-master
rm ~/master.zip

And then hopefully all will be well.
