15 The pkg-uninstall command uninstalls the specified packages (the first
16 form), all the held packages (the second form, see bpkg-pkg-status(1)),
17 or all the held packages that match any of the specified wildcard pat‐
18 terns (the third form). Additionally, immediate or all dependencies of
19 these specified packages can be also uninstalled by specifying the
20 --immediate|-i or --recursive|-r options, respectively. Underneath,
21 this command doesn't do much more than run b uninstall. In the first
22 form the specified packages must have been previously configured with
23 bpkg-pkg-build(1) or bpkg-pkg-configure(1).
24 Additional command line variables (vars, normally config.*) can be
26 passed to the build system. Such variables apply to all the specified
27 packages but can also be specified to only apply to specific packages
28 using the argument grouping mechanism (see bpkg-argument-grouping(1)
29 for details). See bpkg-pkg-install(1) for some examples.
