I want to know the procedure of installation and uninstallation on Linux?
Are there any log file that logs these procedure?
For example, I am installing Netbeans IDE on Linux. I want to know where are the files of this IDE? I want to know where the folder is that contain programs that installed on Linux.
For example, if you install Netbeans IDE, then you can see somethink like below on a file :
programName date time usr
netbeans-7ml 06/08/2011 8:3:00 root

Depends on the Linux flavor (distro) that you are running but typically programs get installed on
/usr/bin
or/usr/local/bin
You can
cd
to the/usr/bin
directory and then dols -la | more
and you'll see all the "executable" files there.
