Hello, I installed adsb-exchange and adsb-receiver using the script method on an Ubuntu 16.04 machine. I have since moved to a Pi and want to uninstall from the Ubuntu system. What's the preferred method apart from hitting the hard drive with a hammer? Thanks, Richard
both the scripts by jprochazka don't offer (as for now) any option or routine for a fast and clean unistall. I'm afraid you should go "manually", uninstalling step by step all packages of your set. Code: sudo apt-get purge <package_name> if the package was installed by apt. Code: sudo dpkg -P <package_name> if the package was compiled from source code (dump1090-mutability and mlat-client). If adsb-exchange was the only site you was feeding: remove dump1090-mutability remove mlat-client edit file /etc/rc.local and remove lines pointing to "mlat", "netcat", "socat" scripts under /home/pi/ subfolders. reboot
Another way to uninstall mlat-client: Code: sudo service mlat-client stop sudo apt-get remove mlat-client sudo apt-get purge mlat-client cd adsb-receiver/build/ sudo rm -rf adsbexchange For adsb-receiver install (other feeders and dump1090) you should modify paths.
Jimmy & MDA, thanks for the pointers! It's no big deal, but it would be useful to have an uninstall script as well.
MDA, I am feeding now using the flightaware tweaked Pi install from just outside Boston, MA. I haven't set up the custom feed stuff yet, but I think I am feeding data in to you.
There is nothing to uninstall other than mlat client, the script assumes dump1090 is installed already.
