NoMachine package labels for RPM and DEB installations (v. 5 and 4)

This article applies to packages v. 5 and 4. For packages v. 6, please read here: https://www.nomachine.com/AR11O00950


Starting from version 4.4.12 (implementing https://www.nomachine.com/FR09L02829), we adopt different package name labels to distinguish client, node and server software.

This change meets requests from our customers deploying NoMachine in large environments and needing to store packages on standard OS repositories. The new packages labels are:

- 'nomachine-enterprise-client' for the NoMachine Enterprise Client

- 'nomachine-terminal-server-node' for NoMachine Terminal Server Node

- 'nomachine-enterprise-desktop' for NoMachine Enterprise Desktop

- 'nomachine-enterprise-server' for NoMachine Enterprise Server

- 'nomachine-workstation' for NoMachine Workstation

- 'nomachine-small-business-server' for NoMachine Small Business Server

- 'nomachine-terminal-server' for NoMachine Terminal Server

- 'nomachine-cloud-server' for NoMachine Cloud Server


The name of the NoMachine (free) package remains 'nomachine'.

 

Uninstall instructions

To uninstall packages starting from v. 4.4.12, it's necessary to specify the proper package label name.

For RPM installations:

# rpm -e <pkgName>

e.g.

# rpm -e nomachine-enterprise-client
# rpm -e nomachine-enterprise-server

TIP: to find out which NoMachine package you have installed, run the following command:

# rpm -qa | grep nomachine

 

For DEB installations:

$ sudo dpkg -r <pkgName>

e.g.

$ sudo dpkg -r nomachine-enterprise-client
$ sudo dpkg -r nomachine-enterprise-server

TIP: to find out which NoMachine package you have installed, run the following command:

$ dpkg -l | grep nomachine

 

Note for versions up to 4.4.12:

Previously RPM and DEB packages for the Enterprise Client, Terminal Server Node and server products are all labelled 'nomachine'. This was intended to make simpler to uninstall the software:  just a unique command (e.g. 'rpm -e nomachine') was necessary to uninstall the NoMachine software, regardless of what was installed.
