How did you install it ? With the PPA ? Froma a downloaded binary ? Compiled from sources ?

It depends on how you installed Sage.

if you installed it from the PPA, the following should work (not tested, please tell us):

sudo apt-get remove sagemath-upstream-binary

If you unpacked a binary from the moirrors or if you compiled the binaries yourself, just remove the directory in which you put Sage.

Also, if you also want to remove your own worksheets and configurations, in both cases you can do:

rm -rf ~/.sage

Thank you for your answer. Now sage cannot be accessed in terminal. But the directory is still there. Can I remove that too. Because it shows error when I tried to install sage later. I want to install it properly along with sage manifold.

Yes you can remove it. Did you use the PPA ?

Yes I used PPA. Now what is the procedure to remove it properly and install again?
