Remove or Delete PPA in Ubuntu/Debian

Method 1

From the source list in the Terminal

Warning

Be conscious while using this method as it requires the use of sudo. It works fine

You can remove the PPA from the sources list where these PPAs are stored. PPA repositories are store in the form of PPA_Name.list.

Use the following command to see all the PPAs added in your system: ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d

Look for your desire PPA here and then remove the .list file associated with the PPA using the following command:

sudo rm -i /etc/apt/sources.list.d/PPA_Name.list

The -i option with rm command asks before removing a file. Consider this a safety check.
