Hi, fellows

"Make" an application is always exciting for me, because it is born by
my box, rather than those compiled RPMs. But the damage comes out soon.

I cannot uninstall them entirely. Many of them don't write an UNINSTALL
or something else. And, differing from Win, unix applications like to cp
their files everywhere, I have to cd every directory and shout "Hey, who
belong to XXX app? I'll rm you with -f"


Anyway to control the files and settings of those "make"ed apps?


One option is to use checkinstall to manage tarball based packages, or get proficient in writing rpm spec files and build your own rpms.
