There usually is a "make uninstall", too. |

But I suggest to use stow, or better, xstow, to install software. It goes |
| 13 |
like this: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
cd myproject-1.2.3 |
| 16 |
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/stow/myproject-1.2.3 |
| 17 |
make |
| 18 |
su |
| 19 |
emerge xstow |
| 20 |
make install |
| 21 |
cd /usr/local/stow |
| 22 |
stow myproject-1.2.3 |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Now you have symlinks in /usr/local, as if you installed into /usr/local |
| 25 |
directly. To uninstall, issue a 'xstow -D myproject-1.2.3' and |
| 26 |
remove /usr/local/stow/myproject-1.2.3. All clean and tidy again. |
