Uninstall configured tar files [solved]

[jofg]

OK

'

This has probably been asked, but how do you uninstall packages that are tar.gz archived and had to be ->

 

./configure

make

make install

 

?

 

I am trying to install

 

ruby 1.8.5 tar.gz

tag lib 1.4 tar.gz

xine 1.13 tar.gz

 

which are ultimately needed for

 

amarok 1.4.2

 

After attempting to install these packages, they crashed the audio in Firefox 2.

 

No Java sound or Real Player 10 sound.

Is there an easy way to uninstall or do I have to manually find each file that was created?

Or how can I back track and restore Firefox back to audio working?

 

Thanks

 

NM

 

I think I just uninstalled taglib and xine, using

make uninstall

and that's xine sorted. All can be installed using the urpmi command or with the Install Software gui application.

 

Even amarok can be installed too without compiling.
