This is a plugin for DNF . It will call for uninstallation of the given package and seek to remove the dangling configuration files unlike the normal dnf remove command . It can also be used to check and remove old configs of programs that are not currently installed. (DNF 5 does not support community plugins it has to be ran independently).
sudo dnf copr enable acidburnmonkey/purge-command
sudo dnf install purge-command
git clone https://github.com/acidburnmonkey/dnf-purge-command.git
cd dnf-purge-command
sudo cp the-purge.py /usr/bin/purge
sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/purge
Just call it from terminal
sudo purge package1 package2 package3
Recently added support to purge same amount as arguments dnf takes
This will try to manually remove binaries not detected by dnf + any associated service , don't use unless you really overtaken by rage.
