Most of the spce packages have 'ngcp' either inside their package
name or inside their version string, so you can get a listing of
spce related packages by running:

  dpkg --list | grep ngcp

To get rid of packages run:

  apt-get remove $packages

or:

  apt-get --purge remove $packages

to also get rid of configuration files which are part of the
$packages.

But before you're doing so I'd be interested in the actual error
message and the state of your system so we might have a chance of
implementing a workaround for your issue in the installer if that's
feasible.

Could you please provide the output of:

  dpkg --list | grep -ve '^ii' -ve '^un'

and the actual error message when running ngcp-installer from
your system?
