Re: Uninstalling prev version of gnat

[anon@anon.org (anon)]

Install only adds the next version to your system. So try this:

Note: Do not delete "/usr/gnat" or any "/usr/gnat" subdirectories because 
this contains the 2009 GNAT files.

All other gnat files can be delete.

4.3.3 binaries:   rm /usr/bin/gnat*

4.3.3 rts files do find / -name ada.ads 
         then rm -r /<result from find>/gnat/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.3


But the best way is to delete all GNAT files and then reinstall the one you 
want. Thios way you do not have any extra files floating around.
