I've installed Xdebug in my system. Then in PhpStorm I've done all the configuration to debug the code using Xdebug.

But in Xdebug is not working properly with PhpStorm. So I would like to remove Xdebug from my local machine. But it's unable to uninstall it.

Using the following command I understood it was installed in my local machine:

php -v shows:

PHP 7.3.28-2+ubuntu18.04.1+deb.sury.org+1 (cli) (built: Jun  4 2021 21:23:19) ( NTS )

    with Xdebug v3.0.4, Copyright (c) 2002-2021, by Derick Rethans

But while ran the uninstall command I am getting the following response in terminal:

sudo apt-get remove  php-xdebug
Reading package lists... Done

Package 'php-xdebug' is not installed, so not removed

Previously I was using Xdebug v2.9.8, it was working fine and I was able to debug the code. So I would like to install the same version.

So looking forward for your support to uninstall version 3 and proper command to install version 2.9.8 in my PHP 7.3 version.
