I often install packages from source with ./configure, make, make install.
Use "checkinstall" instead of "make install", and problem solved.
So I "uninstalled" iconv as mentioned above, but the problem didn't go away. to my surprise I found that /usr/local/bin/iconv was still there.
Of course. :-P
If I delete it the problem is solved, so that's ok. The question is that I thought make clean would have got rid of it,
Never.
and now I wonder what other junk is left lying around from other source packages I've installed and "removed".
All of them will be there :-P
How does one really uninstall? How do you know if everything's been removed?
You would have to use "make uninstall", if available. Better still, if you used checkinstall, then just remove the rpm as usual - even using Yast. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
