Removing Figaro's Password Manager

Post by Mike3 »

So, I removed som apps I didn't need with the unsquasfs & mksquashfs commands.

And I also want to remove the Figaro's Password Manager app that is to be found under PERSONAL.

But I can't find the files for this app anywhere? What are the files called? I can't find it in any of the sfs's (puppy_main.sfs, adrv.sfs, zdrv.sfs).

Not sure why you want to remove it, but here we go:

To remove the package completely you may look at /var/packages/builtin_files/fpm2
Delete its files from squashfs-root
/usr/bin/fpm2
/usr/share/applications/fpm2.desktop
/usr/share/fpm2/pixmaps/logo.png
/usr/share/pixmaps/fpm2.png

After deleting afore listed files, delete the file squashfs-root/var/packages/builtin_files/fpm2 itself.
You may also want to delete fpm2 entry from squashfs-root/var/packages/woof-installed-packages.
Don't delete fpm2_DEV... entry! DEV files are stored in devx.*.sfs.
In case of manual unsquashfs you also need to remove menu entry from squashfs-root/root/.jwmrc
to remove entry from jwm menu.

I hope you know what you are doing... Good luck!!!

EDIT: path corrected to squashfs-root/

The pfind file finder may be useful for you in the future to locate files etc.

Might be prudent to do some dependency checking before removing fpm although i see no reason why you would want to remove it but of course the choice is yours. 8-)
