Hi.
Trying to install NoMachine on an Ubuntu 15.10 machine:
tfennelly@lenny:/tmp$ uname -a Linux lenny 4.2.0-19-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 11 11:39:30 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I get the following error and am wondering if there’s a solution to this:
tfennelly@lenny:/tmp$ sudo dpkg -i nomachine_5.0.63_1_amd64.deb Selecting previously unselected package nomachine. (Reading database ... 248394 files and directories currently installed.)

January 26, 2016 at 10:03 #9784zaqParticipantHello,
Looks like you uninstalled partially your previous version of NoMachine.
The right uninstall command is:sudo dpkg -r nomachine
When you do update, uninstallation isn’t necessary.
In your situation you can do this:
1)
sudo dpkg -r nomachine
2)
sudo rm -rf /usr/NX /etc/NX /var/NX
3)
sudo dpkg -i nomachine_5.0.63_1_amd64.deb
