How do I uninstall SQL Developer in Linux (& reinstall)

in Linux 2 comments

Task: Installing Oracle Database 19c and OBIEE 12c on Windows and Linux VMs in OCI.

Issue: How do I uninstall SQL Developer in Linux?

I uninstalled and confirmed with the “which sqldeveloper” command (see below) to confirm that there is no SQL Developer. Still, when I try to re-install, I get the message that the package sqldeveloper-23.1.1-345.2114.noarch is already installed. Would appreciate any info on resolving this issue. (Also found nothing with the [find / -name "sqldeveloper" -type d] command).

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[root@obiee-linux-vm Downloads]# which sqldeveloper

/usr/bin/which: no sqldeveloper in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin)

Howdy, Stranger!
