How to purge okular?

Question

I have ubuntu 20.10, 64 bit. In Menu, there are 2 instances of Okular.
I can use it but cannot remove via Terminal.

igor@igor-System-Product-Name:~$ sudo apt remove okular
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package 'okular' is not installed, so not removed

In the Software center, Okular is not marked as installed.

Please advise.

Hard to say. Menu states "Okular", no more. And when I open a book using Okular, the latter doesn't name itself. — , Jan 06 '21 at 19:07

It may be installed from one of three sources - APT, Snap, FlatPak.

To remove it completely use:

sudo apt-get remove okular
snap remove okular
flatpak remove flathub org.kde.okular

Done. And I got the same answer from Terminal. – Jan 06 '21 at 19:02
