The uninstall command removes a package and accepts a list of installed packages to remove as arguments.
Plugins (documented here) must be explicitly
uninstalled with the -p
or --plugin
option.
Plugins are installed into the location specified by the plugins_dir
configuration variable, which defaults to the same location that the user
configuration file is located ($HOME/.pear
in unix,
<My Documents>\pear
on windows).
php pyrus.phar uninstall -p PEAR2_Pyrus_Developer
The --force
or -f
option can be used
to force uninstallation if there are errors. For instance, this can be used
to override problems in dependency validation. As such, it should be used
sparingly if at all. Better is to uninstall the packages tha depend on the
package being uninstalled.
