How to remove previous versions of .NET Core from Linux (CentOS 7.1)
I would like to install the current version Core 1.0. Currently the RC2 version is installed. The instruction on the official website are:
Before you start, please remove any previous versions of .NET Core from your system.
But I don't know how and I can't find nothing from Microsoft like for example here.
I found this script... but my Linux skills are not great and I won't make it worst.
Answer
You need to do this over the package manager, otherwise, you end up with a broken system.
This is for Ubuntu/Debian/Mint:
To list all installed packages
sudo apt --installed list
To list all the packages you installed
sudo apt --installed list | grep "dotnet-dev"
to remove a specific package
sudo apt-get remove --purge PACKAGE_NAME
e.g.
sudo apt-get remove --purge dotnet-dev-1.0.1
For other distros, consult the Packman-Rosetta-Stone
