NAME

mpm remove - Remove a package.

SYNOPSIS

mpm remove [OPTIONS] PACKAGES_SPECS...

DESCRIPTION

Remove one or more packages.

Packages recognized by multiple managers will be remove with each of them. You can fine-tune this behavior with more precise package specifiers (like purl) and/or tighter selection of managers.

Packages unrecognized by any selected manager will be skipped.

With `--orphans`, each package is removed together with the dependencies it alone pulled in, mapped to the manager's native cascade verb (``apt remove --auto-remove`, `pacman --remove --recursive`, `dnf autoremove``, ...). Managers with no such verb remove the package only.

PACKAGES_SPECS...

A mix of plain <package_id>, simple <package_id@version> specifiers or full <pkg:npm/left-pad> purls.

OPTIONS

--orphans

Also remove the dependencies the package pulled in that no other package needs, using each manager's native cascade verb. Managers without one remove the package only.

--help / -h

ENVIRONMENT

REMOVE_ORPHANS
