NAME

   flatpak-uninstall - Uninstall an application or runtime

SYNOPSIS

   flatpak uninstall [OPTION...] [REF...]

DESCRIPTION

   Uninstalls an application or runtime.  REF is a reference to the
   application or runtime to install. If no REF is given, everything is
   updated.

   Each REF arguments is a full or partial indentifier in the flatpak ref
   format, which looks like "(app|runtime)/ID/ARCH/BRANCH". All elements
   except ID are optional and can be left out, including the slashes, so
   most of the time you need only specify ID. Any part left out will be
   matched against what is installed, and if there are multiple matches an
   error message will list the alternatives.

   By default this looks for both installed apps and runtime with the
   given NAME, but you can limit this by using the --app or --runtime
   option.

   Normally, this command removes the ref for this application/runtime
   from the local OSTree repository and purges and objects that are no
   longer needed to free up disk space. If the same application is later
   reinstalled, the objects will be pulled from the remote repository
   again. The --keep-ref option can be used to prevent this.

   If all branches of the application/runtime are removed, this command
   also purges the data directory for the application.

   Unless overridden with the --user or the --installation option, this
   command updates the default system-wide installation.

OPTIONS

   The following options are understood:

   -h, --help
       Show help options and exit.

   --keep-ref
       Keep the ref for the application and the objects belonging to it in
       the local repository.

   --user
       Updates a per-user installation.

   --system
       Updates the default system-wide installation.

   --installation=NAME
       Updates a system-wide installation specified by NAME among those
       defined in /etc/flatpak/installations.d. Using
       --installation=default is equivalent to using --system.

   --arch=ARCH
       The architecture to uninstall, instead of the architecture of the
       host system.

   --app
       Only look for an app with the given name.

   --runtime
       Only look for an runtime with the given name.

   --no-related
       Don't uninstall related extensions, such as the locale data.

   -v, --verbose
       Print debug information during command processing.

   --ostree-verbose
       Print OSTree debug information during command processing.

   --version
       Print version information and exit.
