Re: issue with Postgres uninstallation

To install Postgres I created a folder Postgres and I kept all packages and I installed Postgres from these packages.
To Uninstall Me suppose, I have to run rpm -e <each packages name>. Here mistakenly I removed all packages.I
 I am still able to login in Postgres. Please help me to uninstall Postgres completely so that I cannot login again and

I have to install again to login in Postgres.

I am not getting any exception; I just want to uninstall Postgres.
