Uninstall instructions

OUTDATED: DO NOT USE OR MODIFY FOR THE MOMENT

For the apt-built method

If you have used the apt-build method to install the patched GTK do this to uninstall :

  1. Go to menu system > administration > software sources. Pick the “third party software” tab, and uncheck apt-build repository.

  2. Then in a terminal type in:

sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --reinstall -y libgtk2.0-0

  1. Logout / in gnome to apply changes.
For all methods

Because Mac-Applet-Menu is hacked, the way to uninstall it has a trick.

Open Gedit and paste this : export GTK_MENUBAR_NO_MAC=1

Name the text file .gnomerc and save it in your home folder (/home//). Logout ,relogin and the hack should be disabled.

If you want to completely remove it, fire up synaptic and search for libgtk2.0-0. Highlight it and go to menu -> packages -> force version , select the version that ends with the stable release of the ubuntu version you're running (eg: edgy, feisty, gutsy) , press ok and then apply in synaptic.
