Now running that older version but with a partially installed package... bglcontrols.lpk is not installed but bgrabitmappack.lpk is. So the whole thing is partially installed. How can I *remove it totally* such that it is not existing at all in my system? I don't want this component to reinstall when I add another package and rebuild Lazarus. Note: I did the same OLPM install on a Linux Mint (PC platform) and there the whole package was installed just fine.
