Eos-update-notifier not completely removed

A few days ago, I installed and tried out eos-update-notifier. I decided I didn’t want it after all and removed it again using sudo pacman -Rns (I think, it might have been yay -Rns).

I remember having used eos-update-notifier-configure to configure the schedule, but neither that nor /etc/eos-update-notifier.conf exist anymore.

Now my boot log shows errors indicating is hasn’t been completely removed:

$ journalctl -b | grep "eos-update"
Mai 27 07:25:18 toshi-mch (notifier)[2726]: eos-update-notifier.service: Unable to locate executable '/usr/bin/eos-update-notifier': No such file or directory
Mai 27 07:25:18 toshi-mch (notifier)[2726]: eos-update-notifier.service: Failed at step EXEC spawning /usr/bin/eos-update-notifier: No such file or directory
Mai 27 07:25:18 toshi-mch systemd[1082]: eos-update-notifier.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=203/EXEC
Mai 27 07:25:18 toshi-mch systemd[1082]: eos-update-notifier.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

How can I completely remove it, so no more errors happen?
I’m using EOS/Cinnamon.

The answer has been given in this topic(it is an oldy but it should still work I think):

Thank you @keescase! Seems I must improve my searching skills, both here and on my system… :wink: Totally didn’t think of checking ~/.config/systemd/user/.

The timer was actually still running, the service not (missing binary). After removing both .service and .timer files, system starts cleanly again.
