<title>Description</title>
<para>
Uninstalls an application or runtime. <arg choice="plain">REF</arg> is a reference to the
application or runtime to uninstall.
</para>
<para>
Each <arg choice="plain">REF</arg> argument is a full or partial identifier in the
flatpak ref format, which looks like "(app|runtime)/ID/ARCH/BRANCH". All elements
except ID are optional and can be left out, including the slashes,
so most of the time you need only specify ID. Any part left out will be matched
against what is installed, and if there are multiple matches you will be prompted
to choose between them. You will also be prompted if <arg choice="plain">REF</arg>
doesn't match any installed ref exactly but is similar (e.g. "gedit" is similar to
"org.gnome.gedit"), but this fuzzy matching behavior is disabled if
<arg choice="plain">REF</arg> contains any slashes or periods.
</para>
<para>
By default this looks for both installed apps and runtimes with the given
<arg choice="plain">REF</arg>, but you can limit this by using the <option>--app</option>
or <option>--runtime</option> option, or by supplying the initial element in the <arg choice="plain">REF</arg>.
</para>
<para>
Normally, this command removes the ref for this application/runtime from the
local OSTree repository and purges any objects that are no longer
needed to free up disk space. If the same application is later
reinstalled, the objects will be pulled from the remote repository
again. The <option>--keep-ref</option> option can be used to prevent this.
</para>
<para>
When <option>--delete-data</option> is specified while removing an app, its
data directory in <filename>~/.var/app</filename> and any permissions it might
have are removed. When <option>--delete-data</option> is used without a
<arg choice="plain">REF</arg>, all 'unowned' app data is removed.
</para>
<para>
Unless overridden with the <option>--system</option>, <option>--user</option>, or <option>--installation</option>
options, this command searches both the system-wide installation
and the per-user one for <arg choice="plain">REF</arg> and errors
out if it exists in more than one.
