如何卸载Airflow？Ubuntu 16.04下卸载Airflow v1.10.3遇阻求助

Hey there! Let's dig into why Airflow's still lingering on your Ubuntu 16.04 system even after you tried those uninstall steps. Here's a step-by-step plan to wipe it out completely:

Start by finding exactly where the airflow command is located—this will tell us how it was installed in the first place:

which airflow

This might output something like /usr/local/bin/airflow or /home/your_username/.local/bin/airflow. Jot that path down for later.

• First, remove the actual command file directly:

  sudo rm -f $(which airflow)
  

• Next, hunt down Airflow's Python packages. On Ubuntu 16.04, Python 3's site-packages are usually in one of these locations:
  • /usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/ (system-wide installation)
  • /home/your_username/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/ (user-specific installation)
    Delete any folders starting with apache-airflow using:

  # Replace the path with the one you found in your system
  sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/apache-airflow*
  

• Don't forget Airflow's default configuration directory—it's almost always in your home folder:

  rm -rf ~/airflow
  

• If there's a system-level config folder (less common but possible), delete that too:

  sudo rm -rf /etc/airflow
  

Since you removed pip3 earlier, let's reinstall it to make sure we can clean up any remaining package traces:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install python3-pip

Then run a full, automated uninstall to catch any leftover Airflow packages:

pip3 uninstall -y apache-airflow

The -y flag skips confirmation prompts so it can clean everything without extra input.

Sometimes bash remembers commands even after the underlying files are gone. Run this to refresh its cache:

hash -r

Now try typing airflow again—it should return a "command not found" message if we've cleaned everything up.
