How to uninstall a package in sublime text (elaborate) - sublimetext2

I have found a link that explains how to add a command to uninstall a package in the package control: How to remove a package in sublime text 2.
I need more elaboration on the answer in the link above.
I don't understand what Default.sublime-commands is or where to find it.
Also, if I were to try to find the directory where the packages are installed where is it located?

The answer is simple.
On a Mac open package control and type: shift + cmd + p
Then type: remove package
Should be self-explanatory from there.

Why package does not appear in sublime text 2 Package Control?

I would like to install new package (rsync-ssh) in my Sublime Text 2 editor. I already have installed Package Control.
I followed Installation steps:
... installing it via the excellent Package Control plugin. Press ⌘⇧P and type Package Control: Install Package and select it, then type the package name rsync-ssh and select it.
But this package is not available on list, see img:
Any ideas? I'm on Linux (Ubuntu 15.04), I installed Sublime Text few days ago, so is quite new.
I just checked out the package you want to install on the package control website and I think it is exclusively available only for Sublime Text 3.
https://packagecontrol.io/packages/Rsync%20SSH
Try uninstalling ST2 and install ST3 instead and that should help to fix the issue you are currently having, because I have ST3 and the package is available to me.

Why is Sublime Package Control not working?

I have already installed Sublime Text 2, and following this guide, I installed the Package Control; once that I used the Ctrl + Shift + P shortcut in Sublime, and when I type install, the option is not there for installing.
I don't want to install manually all the plugins, that would be a nightmare.
I'm sure that your Package Control is ignored, i had the same problem time ago, just go to Preferences -> Settings - User, and remove Package Control from the list of ignored packages.
See this -> Package Control no longer showing up in Sublime Text 3

Sublime Text 2/3 - tag multiplier not working on tab

I have just found something on my new Ubuntu installation that has not happened before. I will explain
Normally if i do this code:
div*3 and press tab
I get:
<div></div><div></div><div></div>
But now when I do the same thing, I get nothing. It just "tabs" over the line. This never happened before so if someone knows the answer I would be very thankful.
All this is happening with Emmet already installed
Sublime Text 3: 3059
Ubuntu 12.04 64 Bits
Same is also happening on Sublime Text2.
Sublime Text does not come with the Emmet package by default. You will need to install Package Control first - remember that there are different versions for ST2 and ST3. After it has been installed and you've restarted Sublime Text, open the Command Palette with CtrlShiftP, search for Package Control: Install Package, type in emmet, hit Enter, and it will be installed for you.

Reinstall all sublime text 2 plugins

I'm running Sublime Text 2 with package control installed, as well as a few syntax plugins. But
for no reason at all, whenever I open a rspec file, sublime text gives me this error:
Error loading syntax file "Packages/RSpec/RSpec.tmLanguage": Error parsing plist xml: Failed to open file In file "Packages/RSpec/RSpec.tmLanguage"
Worked fine yesterday. Googling the error didn't offer much help, so my question is, is there a quick way to reinstall all sublime text plugins using the package control?
Go to Preferences -> Browse Packages... and it will open up the Packages folder in your filesystem navigator (Explorer, Finder, Nautilus, etc.). Quite Sublime, then delete the RSpec folder. When you restart Sublime, Package Control should notice that the package is not present and will automatically reinstall it for you.
Alternatively, you can uninstall and then reinstall the package through Package Control. Open the Command Palette and type pcr to bring up Package Control: Remove Package. Hit Enter, type rspec, then hit enter again to remove it. Restart Sublime, bring up the Command Palette, type pci for Package Control: Install Package, find RSpec again, and you should be good to go.

Installing packages in Sublime Text 2

When I go to browse packages in Sublime Text 2, the packages folder is full of all the plugins I wanted like Zen coding and SidebarEnhancements. My installed packages folder only has package control in it though. Should other installed packages be located in here?
SidebarEnhancements, for example, does not work, even though it is in the packages folder. If I right click the sidebar I just get the "close" option. I've been trying to figure this out for weeks, and I figured I would just ask here and see if anyone could tell me what I need to do after I have the package in the packages folder, if anything.
With Package Control in Sublime Text 2, you really need to become cozy with a couple of different things to make it all work:
Always look up a package in the wbond community. There you'll be able to see how many people have installed that package (the more popular, the better) as well as the documentation on the package (if any).
Menu Items under Prefs > Package Control. Here you can install, remove or see a list of all installed packages.
Prefs > Package Settings. Here you'll find the settings that can be tinkered with as well as shortcut keys that are available. Make sure to make any changes in the User Settings, rather than the Default Settings. Otherwise, your settings will be overwritten when that package is updated.
CTRL+SHIFT+P. This will bring up a menu where you can look up a lot of the functions your installed packages can do. Just start typing and it will start filtering.
Here is a link to a shorter and to the point description:
http://www.granneman.com/webdev/editors/sublime-text/packages/how-to-install-and-use-package-control/
The steps are:
Install package control.
Go to http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control/installation and grab the install code.
In Sublime Text 2 open the console (Ctrl+`) and paste the code.
Restart Sublime Text 2.
Open command palette via Command+Shift+P (Mac OSX) or Ctrl+Shift+P (Windows).
Start typing Package Control and choose the package you are looking for.
Try using Sublime Package Control to install your packages.
Also take a look at these tips
The Installed Packages Directory You will find this directory in the
data directory. It contains a copy of every sublime-package installed.
Used to restore Packages
So, you shouldn't put any plugin to this folder.
For getting works of SidebarEnhancements plugin try to disable and reenable this plugin with using Package Control. If it doesn't work then try to remove folder "SidebarEnhancements" from "Packages" folder and install it again via Package Control.
You may try to install Package Control first by following simple instructions available at Installation Guide (which is like 1. Open the Console, 2. Paste the code).
Then please check Package Docs Control Usage for Basic Functionality:
Package Control is driven by the Command Pallete. To open the pallete,
press Ctrl+Shift+P (Win, Linux) or CMD+Shift+P (OS X). All Package
Control commands begin with Package Control:, so start by typing
Package.
The command pallete will now show a number of commands. Most users
will be interested in the following:
Install Package
Show a list of all available packages that are available for install.
This will include all of the packages from the default channel, plus
any from repositories you have added.
This recently worked for me. You just need to add to your packages, so that the package manager would be aware of the packages:
Add the Sublime Text 2 Repository to your Synaptic Package Manager:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/sublime-text-2
Update
sudo apt-get update
Install Sublime Text:
sudo apt-get install sublime-text
Enabling a previously-installed Sublime Text package
If you have a subdirectory under Sublime Text 2\Packages for a package that isn't working, you may need to enable it.
Follow these steps to enable an installed package:
Preferences > Package Control > Enable Package
Select the package you want to enable from the list
