'Uninstalling pygame on linux
I have been trying to uninstall pygame, but i'm not sure how and i couldn't find any resources to help me.
I had installed pygame with the command python3 -m pip install -U pygame -- user
, and attempted to uninstall it with sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove python-pygame
, but it spat back Package 'python-pygame' is not installed, so not removed
. but, in the terminal, I can do python3 -m pygame.examples.aliens
and the aliens game will show up.
edit: please note that i am new to linux and am running galliumos
