Uninstalling Binaries

It is very simple to uninstall a binary installation. All you need to do is to remove the symlink:

1. Change the directory to the installation path:

shell> cd /usr/local

1. Check where mysql is pointing to, which will show the path it is referencing to:

shell> sudo ls -lh mysql

1. Remove mysql:

shell> sudo rm mysql

1. Remove the binaries (optional):

shell> sudo rm -f /opt/mysql-8.0.3-rc-linux-glibc2.12-x86_64.tar.gz
