Yes. I thought that seemed odd. Thanks for
verifying.
***What's the correct way to un-install them now?***
go back into the source code directory you built+installed them from.
type:
make uninstall
you must not have re-run configure with different options since doing
the last make install.
note that in the case of the ultimate screw up (e.g. with JACK), you can
still use this method. suppose you mistakenly did this:
(unpack source tarball)
cd srcdir
./configure
make
make install
(remember that you mean to use --prefix=/usr)
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install
(remember that you shouldn't mix tarballs and packages)
looks bad now - you have two versions of the software, one under /usr,
one under /usr/local.
its ok, just do this:
cd srcdir
./configure
make uninstall
./configure --prefix
make uninstall
and its all cleaned up.
