Add and remove programs via three-party software in Linux

It is quite cumbersome to add and remove programs in Linux. The installation of the software can be described as strange, except for the simplest double-click rpm package to install the software, as well as the make and configure commands. It is also installed by copying the software directly to the specified directory. In addition to the easiest way to install the rpm package, the rest of the methods are difficult to master, but today we will introduce you to third-party software to help us install and remove programs in Linux.

First, we go to http://www.stierand-Linuxit.de/kinstaller/kinstaller-0.2.tar.gz to download a software package called Kinstaller, which is decompressed in Linux after downloading. Then enter them in the command window:

configure
make
make install

This will install the software, then enter Kinstaller to start the software ( Figure 1), click the "Select" button in the "Installation" page of the software, select the program package to be installed in the file selection window that appears, and then click the "Install" button to install.

It is quite troublesome to delete the software in Linux, but after using this software, we can also easily delete the software, on the "Uninstall" page (Figure 2 The lieutenant will display the software we have installed. You can delete the software by selecting the software to be deleted and then clicking the "Delete" or "Uninstall" button. The difference between these two buttons is that some software in Linux can be deleted by directly deleting the file. For this type of software, click the "Delete" button, and the other type of software with the anti-installer will use the "Uninstall" button. , removed by uninstalling. If you click the wrong button when you delete the selected software, there will be no reaction, so from this point you can determine which button to use to remove the software.

Tip: The running environment of this software needs to run on KDE 3.3 and above. The current mainstream Linux distribution is 3.3, if you are using the old version Linux will not be able to use this software. In addition, this software can only recognize programs installed through it, and sometimes it cannot be displayed for software installed with commands or rpm.
