# Yanking packages from packages.gitlab.com
In case something went wrong with the release and there is a need to remove the packages you can yank the packages by following the
procedure described in [package cloud documentation](https://packagecloud.io/docs#yank_pkg).
You need to have:
1. `package_cloud` gem installed (sudo gem install package_cloud)
1. Email and password for packages.gitlab.com
1. Make sure that you are supplying the url to packages.gitlab.com (default is packagecloud.io)
Example of yanking a package:
```bash
package_cloud yank --url https://packages.gitlab.com gitlab/gitlab-ce/el/6 gitlab-ce-7.10.2~omnibus-1.x86_64.rpm
```
If you are attempting this for the first time the output will look something like:
```bash
Looking for repository at gitlab/gitlab-ce... No config file exists at /Users/marin/.packagecloud. Login to create one.
Email:
marin@gitlab.com
Password:
Got your token. Writing a config file to /Users/marin/.packagecloud... success!
success!
Attempting to yank package at gitlab/gitlab-ce/el/6/gitlab-ce-7.10.2~omnibus-1.x86_64.rpm...done!
```
