I have some libraries namely related to libboost
. I would like to remove it completely. But, even after doing apt-get purge
, some files are still present in directories /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
, /usr/share/lintian/overrides/
and /usr/share/doc/
. Should I remove them, if so is there any procedure about how to remove these files?
I have the following files:
libboost_atomic.so.1.58.0

libboost_chrono.so.1.58.0

Edit: This is not the same question as this. In this question I am asking whether I can safely remove files/shared libs from /usr/share/lintian/overrides/
and /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
. If so, how?
Clarification: sudo apt-get purge libboost-date-time1.58.0
will also remove files like libreoffice-calc*
, libreoffice-core*
, libreoffice-draw*
, libreoffice-gnome*
, libreoffice-gtk*
, libreoffice-help-en-us*
, libreoffice-impress*
, libreoffice-math*
and some more files which seem important!
