Cant remove jupyter related packages

I have the following packages to remove (2xTab):

$ jupyter-
jupyter-bundlerextension  jupyter-nbconvert         jupyter-nbextension       jupyter-notebook          jupyter-qtconsole         jupyter-serverextension   jupyter-trust

And pip says they are not there:

$ pip3 freeze | grep jupyter
$ pip freeze | grep jupyter

and when trying to remove any of them I got same eg:

sudo -H pip3 uninstall jupyter-notebook
Cannot uninstall requirement jupyter-notebook, not installed

but eg.:

$ which jupyter-notebook 
/usr/local/bin/jupyter-notebook

So how to remove those packages ?

The 'packages' which you say you have to remove are in fact scripts, most (all?) of which are provided by the pip package named notebook. Commonly, the notebook package gets installed as a dependency of the metapackage named jupyter (as suggested in another answer), but it can also be installed without it. I would suggest you try (following sudo etc you listed already)

sudo -H pip3 uninstall notebook

run following command

pip3 show jupyter

It will give some output like 

Name: jupyter
Version: 1.0.0
Summary: Jupyter metapackage. Install all the Jupyter components in one go.
Home-page: http://jupyter.org
Author: Jupyter Development Team
Author-email: [email protected]
License: BSD
Location: /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages
Requires: ipykernel, ipywidgets, qtconsole, jupyter-console, notebook, nbconvert

now copy on clipboard the value of Require in output, which are the packages required for jupyter

then run the following command 

sudo pip3 uninstall -y jupyter [paste the copied content ]

which would be equivalent to 

sudo pip3 uninstall -y jupyter ipykernel ipywidgets qtconsole jupyter-console notebook nbconvert

make sure you remove comma between package names after pasting the content
