  • Arch Linux does not have a seperate 'remove' and 'purge' command, instead the package is removed in one go.
  • Replaces 'pacman remove' with 'pacman -Rns' for a more complete removal, including configuration and dependencies.
  • The 'com.docker.cli' symlink does not exist.
  • Ensures all steps are accurate for an Arch Linux environment using pacman. The command explained:
    -R - removes packages
    -n - removes configuration files related to the package -s - Removes Dependencies that are not required by other packages

Description

The uninstallation steps for Arch Linux were wrong. I replaced the steps with the correct commands.

Here is the Arch Wiki page for reference.

Feel free to recommend changes. Thank you!
