If you are installing a package by hand and wants to revert back to
the previous state, best is to :
- when you ./configure it, use the various --prefix directives (do a
./configure --help for information on that)
- when you want to remove, make uninstall in the source dir (so don't
remove it!)

My dad is interested in some sort of an Internet Radio app for his

the idea. For a while we played with iTunes under Wine but that's sort

Thanks,

Does he want to stream audio or listen to streaming audio? If he just
wants to listen Rhythmbox (and most audio players) can do that. If he
wants to stream, look at icecast. If he buys a slingbox he'll need to
run the slingbox software under wine.
