how can I clear complete package traces in ubuntu devices? I am trying to uninstall a package from golang binary. After uninstall when I do dpkg -l /apt-cache still I am getting package name and configuration files information. Is it possible to remove those traces or uninstall the package using shell script by running script from package maintainer scripts?

Looks like you used remove, which leaves the config files in place.

If you use purge, it will also remove the config files.

Neither option will remove data or config files in your /home. You must remove those manually, if any.
