Exam 101-500 Topic 1 Question 320 Discussion

Actual exam question for Lpi's 101-500 exam
Question #: 320
Topic #: 1
When removing a package, which of the following dpkg options will completely remove the files including configuration files?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

Explanation
When removing a package on a system using dpkg package management, the --purge option ensures that configuration files are removed as well. The --purge option is equivalent to the --remove option followed by the --purge-config-files option, which removes any configuration files that are marked as obsolete. The
--remove option only removes the package files, but leaves the configuration files intact. The --clean option removes any .deb files from the local cache, but does not affect the installed packages. The --delete option is not a valid option for dpkg. References:
