[Lazarus] Howto uninstall Lazarus and reinstall

[Terry A. Haimann via Lazarus]

My Lazarus install seems messed up.  It is version 1.8.2 and it was
installed from the download and after downloading from the website it
auto install by what I am assuming is dpk. Frree Pascal seems to be
fine.

I am running Linux Mint 18.3

What would be my best method to remove Lazarus and reinstall.

Why 'seems'?
What is the error message?

Do you mean deb?

Uninstall:
dpkg --purge lazarus

Maybe you messed up your configs. Rename or remove ~/.lazarus

I am getting many duplicate errors like the following:

Note: Duplicate unit "ZDbcLogging" in "zcore 7.1", orphaned ppu
"/home/terry/zeosdbo/ZEOSDBO-7.1.3a-stable/packages/lazarus/lib/x86_64-
linux/ZDbcLogging.ppu"

So I think I messed up the zeosdbo install.

Also this line isn't compiling, so I think a library might be missing.

Chart2PieSeries1.AddPie(SaveRec.EV, State, clRed);

No, zeos packaging is somewhat messy but, in spite of those warnings, it
works (but I'm using 7.1.4 while I wait for some bugs to be fixed in 7.2)

That's another issue. Did you check if is there an updated version of
the package that doesn't compile?
