Como limpar o arquivo de configuração do pacote?

Question

Eu tento instalar o navegador da web midori, mas isso aparece

sudo apt-get install midori
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

midori is already the newest version (0.5.11-ds1-2).
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libllvm3.8:i386 linux-headers-4.4.0-31 linux-headers-4.4.0-31-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-38 linux-headers-4.4.0-38-generic linux-image-4.4.0-31-generic linux-image-4.4.0-38-generic
  linux-image-extra-4.4.0-31-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-38-generic
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.

Eu tentei instalar o suporte matlab, agora eu não sei como me livrar disso. Ele aparece o tempo todo. O que devo tentar?

Para remover um pacote completamente, você pode usar

apt-get purge packagename

No seu caso, isso seria

apt-get purge matlab-support
