[QE-users] Problem with NSCF and PDOS calculations (with vacuum)

Dear Prof Giannozzi,

I am a metallurgist (like the old fashioned type that heat and beat metals
and cast molten steel) and I am trying to shift careers. Being unemployed
is not fun.

Last year, I followed the recipes I found recommended on the internet and
loaded and compiled the QE v6.9.
Since there are bugs in this version, I would like to remove QE v6.9 and
load and compile the latest version v7.0
I am using Ubuntu 20 as an operating system / language, which I do not know
at all. Are there any particular phrases / commands that I can use to
completely remove v6.9? Or is this unnecessary?

Thanks for your help.

Charlie Montross
