uninstall Fortran Compiler Professional Edition for Linux* 11.0

Hi,

I'm looking around at the same issue I met without success. Hope I'm in the right place to post this.

Removing unintentionally the directory containing Intel Fortran install with mkl install, I can't reinstall Intel Fortran getting a message :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Initializing, please wait...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Intel(R) Fortran Compiler Professional Edition for Linux* 11.0 is already
installed.

If you want to reinstall the Intel(R) Fortran Compiler Professional Edition for
Linux* 11.0
please uninstall current version and run install script again.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Press "Enter" key to quit:

Can you help me ?

Regards

Steve Lionel (Intel)

Follow the uninstall instructions in the release notes.  My guess is that the install is recorded in the rpm database and needs to be removed somehow.

I've read the guide before posting :

2. Type the command: <install-dir>/bin/ia32/uninstall_cprof.sh (substitute intel64 or ia64 for ia32 as desired)

But there isn't <install-dir> anymore and there's no uninstall script in archive.

Try e.g. 'rpm -qa | grep intel'

and (as root) run 'rpm -e --force ....' on the entries which you need to remove.  I find this simpler than attempting to extract uninstall from the archive. Without --force, you would have to find the right order for removal (e.g. mkl before ifort...)

# rpm -qa | grep intel
intel-isubhe101018-10.1.018-1.em64t
intel-iidbe101018-10.1.018-1.em64t
intel-icce101018-10.1.018-1.em64t

No ifort.

I think I'll ask for directory backup.

Thanks for your help.
