Uninstalling XL Fortran

XL Fortran does not provide a standalone uninstallation tool. You must use the Linux rpm utility to uninstall XL Fortran.

Notes:
  1. You must have root user access to uninstall the compiler.
  2. Whenever you uninstall a package, specify the V.R.M-F (Version.Release.Modification-Fix level) of the package.
  3. Always uninstall packages in the reverse order of that in which they were installed. In other words, the last package installed is the first package that you remove. Exception: The sample programs and product documentation do not have any package dependencies. You can remove them in any order.
  4. You cannot uninstall packages that are required by other packages. For example, xlsmp.bg.rte is a shared component if XL C/C++ Advanced Edition V8.0 for Blue Gene is also installed on the same system.
  5. The uninstallation commands will not remove any configuration files that were generated by new_install or xlf_configure.
