Since I prefer to use Evolution, I would really like to completely remove Thunderbird from my PC. I already performed sudo apt-get purge thunderbird*
but locate thunderbird
still lists some hits:
/usr/share/app-install/desktop/thunderbird:thunderbird.desktop
/usr/share/app-install/icons/thunderbird.png
/usr/share/icons/HighContrast/scalable/apps-extra/thunderbird-icon.svg
How can I completely remove it?

sudo apt-get purge thunderbird*
Here is what went wrong in your case.
sudo updatedb
before the system picks the changes. Or uselocate -e
to print only files existing at the timelocate
is run./usr/share/app-install
belong to Ubuntu Software Center./usr/share/icons
belong to the corresponding icon theme.
