===== Remove packages =====

Removing installed packages can be done via one of the two tools: **apt-get** or **dpkg**.

Every command has to be run with super user privileges **sudo**. 

**1**. To remove an already installed package (packages), run:

   sudo apt-get remove package1 package2

**2**. To remove a package with its configuration:

   sudo apt-get purge package1

**3**. To remove not needed dependencies, after removing a package:

   sudo apt-get autoremove

**4**. A package can be removed from the system via **dpkg** tool as well:

   sudo dpkg -r package1.deb
