Uninstall Ollama from a Linux box

note, Feb 23, 2024, on Mitja Felicijan's blog

I have had some issues with Ollama not being up-to-date. If Ollama is installed with a curl command, it adds a systemd service.

sudo systemctl stop ollama
sudo systemctl disable ollama
sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload

sudo rm /usr/local/bin/ollama

sudo userdel ollama
sudo groupdel ollama

rm -r ~/.ollama
sudo rm -rf /usr/share/ollama

That is about it.
