Uninstall a program that installed from source.

hack3rcon · 12-13-2016, 08:43 AM

Hello.
I installed "Hydra" on Debian 8.6 amd64 from source and I like to remove it but:

Code:

$ sudo make uninstall
make: *** No rule to make target 'uninstall'.  Stop.

any idea?

Thank You.

It might not have any uninstallation scripts. You could run the installation again and see where it places the files and delete them manually and also check the $PATH variable, if it's added anything there.

Are you in the same directory where you were when you installed it? (the kit)

I normally make debs from the sources.

$ fakeroot debian/rules binary

Which assumes that there is a configuration for that in the sources. And probably a less remember-able method with debpkg (part of the devscripts package). But it makes it easier since you install / uninstall packages with the package manager. And you don't need root until you do that. And you have some sense of "trust" in the package manager. Alternatively never make install and instead use it from the path you compiled it in. It's more tedious but can be made to work for most things.

Otherwise you'll need to manually remove the installed files.

$ make install 2>&1 | tee thelogofoutputtedtext.txt

You'd really need to dissect the makefile to "know" what changed. Or have a filesystem with snapshots or a backup BEFORE you did the install. And compare it to the changes AFTER. Beyond that a fresh and clean install is a way to know it's gone. And standard practice if you have things or situations you don't "trust" affect your machine.

Also open the make file and see if there is some sort of uninstall named something differently. Its not unheard of. 'make remove' or whatever.

If there's no uninstall, it's not too difficult to read the install section of the make file and manually reverse all its actions.

the one that did that source make file did not include a rule to make a means to un-install it via make uninstall. you're screwed in that being the way you can now actually remove everything it installed. you will have to manually remove everything yourself.
