7
9 flatpak uninstall [OPTION...] [REF...]
10
12 Uninstalls an application or runtime. REF is a reference to the
13 application or runtime to uninstall.
14
15 Each REF argument is a full or partial indentifier in the flatpak ref
16 format, which looks like "(app|runtime)/ID/ARCH/BRANCH". All elements
17 except ID are optional and can be left out, including the slashes, so
18 most of the time you need only specify ID. Any part left out will be
19 matched against what is installed, and if there are multiple matches an
20 error message will list the alternatives.
21
22 By default this looks for both installed apps and runtimes with the
23 given REF, but you can limit this by using the --app or --runtime
24 option, or by supplying the initial element in the REF.
25
26 Normally, this command removes the ref for this application/runtime
27 from the local OSTree repository and purges any objects that are no
28 longer needed to free up disk space. If the same application is later
29 reinstalled, the objects will be pulled from the remote repository
30 again. The --keep-ref option can be used to prevent this.
31
32 If all branches of the application/runtime are removed, this command
33 also purges the data directory for the application.
34
35 Unless overridden with the --system, --user, or --installation options,
36 this command searches both the system-wide installation and the
37 per-user one for REF and errors out if it exists in more than one.
38
40 The following options are understood:
41
42 -h, --help
43 Show help options and exit.
44
45 --keep-ref
46 Keep the ref for the application and the objects belonging to it in
47 the local repository.
48
49 --user
50 Uninstalls from a per-user installation.
51
52 --system
53 Uninstalls from the default system-wide installation.
54
55 --installation=NAME
56 Uninstalls from a system-wide installation specified by NAME among
57 those defined in /etc/flatpak/installations.d/. Using
58 --installation=default is equivalent to using --system.
59
60 --arch=ARCH
61 The architecture to uninstall, instead of the architecture of the
62 host system.
63
64 --all
65 Remove all refs on the system.
66
67 --unused
68 Remove unused refs on the system.
69
70 -y, --assumeyes
71 Automatically answer yes to all questions. This is useful for
72 automation.
73
74 --app
75 Only look for an app with the given name.
76
77 --runtime
78 Only look for a runtime with the given name.
79
80 --no-related
81 Don't uninstall related extensions, such as the locale data.
82
83 --force-remove
84 Remove files even if they're in use by a running application.
85
86 -v, --verbose
87 Print debug information during command processing.
88
89 --ostree-verbose
90 Print OSTree debug information during command processing.
