Re: [Sgems-users] SGeMS on Mac OS

[Jose R. V. <vi...@gm...>]

Thomas,

Thanks for your help. It seems that I am getting more problems every time I
try to install SGeMS on my Ubuntu laptop. I believe I need to make a clean
install before going any further with permissions problems. Is there any way
I can uninstall all packages and start over? Thanks!
