[chimerax-users] Uninstalling ChimeraX

So if you used yum or dnf to install ChimeraX, you should use the 
yum/dnf to remove it.  And that works if you didn't alter the ChimeraX 
installation.  To confirm that ChimeraX was installed with yum/dnf, run:

     rpm -qa | grep chimerax

If you have a ChimeraX production build, you will see that the package 
name is ucsf-chimerax.   If it is a daily build, the package name is 
ucsf-chimerax-daily.

So in your case, run:

     sudo dnf remove ucsf-chimerax

But it might fail because you did the "ChimeraX_main.py --uninstall".  
If that is the case, you should restore ChimeraX from backup, and then 
do the remove.

     HTH,

     Greg
