Hello. I installed a .deb package (to install nautilus-send-gmail) that I want to remove, but I can't figure out how to remove it. I've tried searching for the package in both the Ubuntu Software Center and Synaptic, but no dice (also tried searching for just partial words like nautilus, gnome, gmail, etc.).

Here's a link to the website where I downloaded the deb file:

Suggestions? Thanks for your help.

are you absolutely sure it is, in fact, installed?
if you try to reinstall it, it would say "reinstall" if it is installed (cant help you then)

Thanks for the response. Yeah, it does appear to be installed. The package installs a right-click Nautilus option which is, in fact, displayed as expected. Also, I did try to re-install the deb package and it did show up in the Ubuntu Software Center as "reinstall".

Other suggestions welcome!!
