Any thoughts on how to uninstall the package, so I can reinstall it in the more standard location? /home/krikket/downloads was only intended to be a temporary directory...
I think it might be installed where it should already. In order to install it somewhere else you had to give a explicit "prefix" to the configure script, and I don't remember you saying you did. And the default prefix is /usr/local. Meaning: the "make install" phase will install there by default, regardless of where you do the configure and make. But, if you want to uninstall, try "make uninstall", if such target does exist. Next time, use "checkinstall" instead of "make install", and you will be able to use "rpm --erase package_name" to remove it. Purists and experts here do not like it, but it is the easiest thing to use. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
