Hi all,
There is a beautiful howto about how to go about uninstalling the sources http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=85
but there is no way told howto uninstall the .deb files smoothly . The easiest/simplest way is to

Code: Select all

sudo aptitude purge deluge-torrent
Similarly if deluge is installed from the .deb then

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg -P deluge-torrent 
atleast in ubuntu as well as debian (most probably) . Purging is better as it will remove
the package for sure as well as the configuration files. This is needed if cleanliness between the two have to be maintained.
