How Remove and purge lam mpi from ubuntu 18.04

Question

I recently tried to uninstall lam mpi on Ubuntu 18.04 to replace it with open MPI.

I ran the following command:

 sudo apt install lam4-dev      

It did not work, what should I do?

Answer 1

So after searches and searches i finally found one way to do this.

So lets do this. Its really simple.

just run this code on your terminal.

 sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove lam4-dev

Again i am using the ubuntu 18-04

i hope this post help you out. If not tell perhaps i forgot something.

for some reason i had installed the openmpi-bin package

so i runned this other command

sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove openmpi-bin

sudo apt-get purge openmpi-bin
