That's not true actually. When we delete a module for some reason if you don't delete what's in the install directory you'll end up having a frankenstein install where an old .so gets loaded into a newer build. It leads to very weird and hard to track down bugs. We had quite a few reports last time we did that (rawprepare maybe). On the deleting of build/ you're right, that's mostly for sanity. If you're rebuilding very infrequently might as well not chance it. For regular development I usually do a "dobuild" script like I described and a "dorebuild" script that doesn't nuke build/. >> git pull upstream master > > If you didn't mess with your git configuration a simple "git pull" will be > enough. Sure, I was just trying to be as foolproof as possible since the original question included having issues with gt. >> ./build.sh --prefix /opt/darktable --buildtype Release >> cd build >> make install > > If you skipped the "rm" above then you can replace those three lines with > > cd build/ > make -j install Yep, that's what I do in the "dorebuild" script.

The other option is to just install into ~/darktable or something like that.
