i want to change the hostname,which was inputed when i install jitsi-meet, how can i chang it?

[vinson-zhang]

one: with the command:apt-get remove --purge jitsi-meet jitsi-meet-prosody jitsi-meet-web-config jitsi-meet-web jicofo jitsi-videobridge to remove the jistsi
two:sudo apt-get install -y jitsi-meet
you can config the hostname again!

Not working on fresh debian buster installation !

[jlegen]

the list of packages to be removed needs to be extended by "jitsi-videobridge2". or remove the hostname manually: "echo PURGE | debconf-communicate jitsi-videobridge2"

This had been fixed in latest stable https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-videobridge/commit/63d2f9da8208cf1fb65ee6fe20b850c93be924c2

I had this same problem with the latest "quick install" instructions from here:
https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/doc/quick-install.md

I uninstalled, but when reinstalling I was not asked to provide the hostname.

But, the uninstall instruction above seemed to do it.
i.e.
apt-get remove --purge jitsi-meet jitsi-meet-prosody jitsi-meet-web-config jitsi-meet-web jicofo jitsi-videobridge

After this, reinstalling would ask for the hostname.

Instructions need updating. Or, a way to reconfigure hostname for an existing installation.

FWIW, @jlegen suggestion worked for me. Full uninstall command is

apt-get remove --purge jitsi-meet jitsi-meet-prosody jitsi-meet-web-config jitsi-meet-web jicofo jitsi-videobridge jitsi-videobridge2 

On next install, it asks for the hostname

(and also, it seems to repair the broken packages issue).
