I downloaded a CINT/C++ interpreter called ROOT, but now I want to remove it, because it has some objectional pictures. I tried removing it with sudo apt-get remove ROOT, but it didn't work. How can I safely remove this?

If you installed from source, and still have the source directory on your hard drive, simply go into the source directory and type:
JimCode:sudo make uninstall
I found a different way . I found out where the objectional icons were located.The first two were in /usr/share/root/icons, but it told me I didn't have permission to delete them. So I usedto give me superuser privileges in nautilus. I deleted them, and then navigated to /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48X48/apps/ and deleted the desktop icon. But it had a back-up icon in /usr/share/pixmaps/ which I also deleted. Now I can keep ROOT without the objectional icons .Code:sudo nautilus
