如何删除所有通过pip安装且没有virtualenv的软件包？

Question

I have installed some packages by accident without being in a virtual environment. Thus I wish to uninstall all packages, I installed via pip.

This does not work:

$ pip freeze -l > dump.txt $ cat dump.txt | xargs pip uninstall -y

Because:

Uninstalling python-ldap-3.0.0:
Exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):

    onerror(os.remove, fullname, sys.exc_info())
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/shutil.py", line 264, in rmtree
    os.remove(fullname)
OSError: [Errno 13] Keine Berechtigung: '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ldap/asyncsearch.py'

Is there an easy way to uninstall all locally install python packages?

since I cant post just comments, you can try this command: pip uninstall -y -r <(pip freeze) . It clears your user packages folder outside of the context of a virtualenv. Try this command with care.
