Begin3 Title: make_uninstall Version: 2.2.1 Entered-date: AUG072005 Description: This script is used to monitor a command like 'make install', so a record of the install can be created, which will allow you to completely remove the package from your system later. Usually when you compile a package you do './configure ; make ; make install'. Instead of the 'make install' step do 'mku', and choose 'Monitor' from the menu. Example: ./configure ; make ; mku You can see a listing for each installed package in /var/log/uninstall/packages/package_name. You can also create a database in "/var/log/uninstall/ configure", with the configure and make rules you want for a particular source package. Run 'mku' and choose 'Configure', then 'Create' from the menu, to create a configure and make rules file. Then, instead of the './configure ; make ; make install' steps do 'mku', and choose 'Configure' then 'Run' from the menu. You'll have the option of creating a Slackware, Debian, or RPM package of the install, after the install or later using /var/log/uninstall/packages/package_name as the guide. The 'mku' script requires 'bash' and 'dialog' and/or 'Xdialog'.
