  Too many people got trolled into “removing the French language pack” on Linux systems that there’s now a check to see if someone is deleting every file off their computer (including the os system files). --no-preserve-root is the option you need to include to actually delete all the files off your system.

      depending on your shell, i believe the glob is expanded before it gets to the rm program

  Overrides the protection in place that prevents you from deleting the root of your filesystem.
