title: Full & complete uninstall QT Creator
body: <p>Question:</p>
  
  <p><strong>How to uninstall QT Creator from Linux machine?</strong></p>
  
  <p>I have a corrupted install on a Debian Jessie machine. I have tried reinstalling, fixing, etc. and with no luck. I was advised to uninstall completely, grab the newest version and reinstall.</p>
  
  <p>The problem is that I'm not sure how to do this and every time I try, QT keeps coming back with the same exact issues, I'm assuming because of some config files that are not getting deleted in the removal process.</p>
  
  <p>Running <code>qmake --version</code> gives me this output:</p>
  
  <pre><code>QMake version 3.0
  Using Qt version 5.6.2 in /home/greg/anaconda2/lib
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Running <code>pkg-config --modversion QtCore</code> gives me this output:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Package QtCore was not found in the pkg-config search path.
  Perhaps you should add the directory containing `QtCore.pc'
  to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
  No package 'QtCore' found
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The problem is that I've got several versions installed, in different folders and I want to completely start over with a fresh install of QT Creator. Version 5.10 was installed yesterday via the QT maintenence tool, but for some reason won't run. I just need to remove it and start over. QT 5.9.3 and 5.10 are installed at <code>/home/greg</code> and you can see 5.6.2 is installed in my anaconda2 folder. Not sure how this happened. I'm still a newb so still learning.</p>
  
  <p><strong>How can I do a complete/full uninstall and removal of ALL QT creator files without deleting other QT files, such as KDE dependencies, etc., so that I can do a fresh install with new config settings????</strong></p>
