how to uninstall application installed from source ?
Hi everyone !
When I install an application from source and I want to uninstall it I have to run 'make uninstall'. Which files I have to keep. Do I have to keep the whole source ? Is there some other way to remove the application ? The application is installed in different directories. ( /usr/bin /usr/lib .. and s.o.) tanks :) |
"make clear" this command will help for uninstall.

@teodor_b: you have to keep the whole installation directory. Another option is to manually delete the installed files and reverse back any step performed by make install. It is useful to save the output from make install. Usually I do that by Code:
make install 2>&1 | tee install.log |
tanks for the help. :) I'll try your advises
