I accidentally did a system-wide install of flask and sqlalchemy. I sudo pip installed

  • 0

I accidentally did a system-wide install of flask and sqlalchemy. I “sudo pip install”ed both of them, and now I’m wondering how i can uninstall both of those off my system. I already have virtualenv all set up, so I don’t want flask or sqlalchemy attached to my system. I read that having it directly installed can cause problems when working with different frameworks and different versions of a framework.

Is it a problem that I did a system-wide install of these packages?

    sudo pip uninstall flask should do the trick. And yes, having it installed globally can cause issues if you’re working with different versions of other packages.
