The yum remove command has caused grief for some users, when it removed many additional dependent packages. Developers have advised to use rpm -e packagename instead, and that does appear to be the general recommendation as read somewhere in the wiki recently.

At the moment a don't know any package that depends of Affa. And if this would be the case in the future, yum asked for conformation unless you run it with the -y option. Anyway, I have changed the uninstall instructions to rpm -e. It's as good as yum erase.

The old stuff should be retained for historical reasons & for users still using the old version etc.

Ray, the old stuff is still there. Just before installation of affa3 see on the right hand side. -HF

OK I see that now, thanks. The problems is that if that v2 section is not expanded ie in Less mode, then the menus for Affa 2 stuff do not work. Maybe that is a bug in wiki ie if you click on a v2 menu item when in Less mode, then nothing happens, whereas if you expand the v2 section first & then click on the Affa 2 menu items then you are taken to the text section. That does not seem the appropriate or right way to have to use menus.
