composer remove issues

[CarlOgden1967]

Hi

Just to let you know that the install now works with the timeout increased.

However, when following your instructions to remove your package, when composer remove ralphjsmit/tall-install I get the following:-

ralph-example laravel$ composer remove ralphjsmit/tall-install
./composer.json has been updated
Running composer update ralphjsmit/tall-install
Cannot update only a partial set of packages without a lock file present.

Removal failed, reverting ./composer.json to its original content.
Removal failed, ralphjsmit/tall-install is still present, it may be required by another package. See `composer why ralphjsmit/tall-install`.

I can't see having your package still available to the project an issue, but I am only a Laravel novice at the moment.

Kind regards Carl.

Great that the install works! Can you try running composer install again first and then composer remove ralphjsmit/tall-install? It says that there should be a composer.lock present, so perhaps that's the issue.

Having the package available isn't an issue indeed, but it isn't needed either. Another thing you can do is editing the composer.json file yourself, remove the line with the package, and run composer upgrade -W. That's what I usually do.
