No Alex, it is not a feature, it is a bug. The `uninstall` target is a perfectly reasonable function of any build system using autoconf and you would have got one for free if automake had been adopted. It would have also reduced the likelyhood of the following bug: > Linking python module emc.so > /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: > cannot find -lGL > collect2: ld returned 1 exit status > make: *** [../lib/python/emc.so] error 1 ... which has been reported before on more than one occasion. Telling a user to `apt-get install <foo>` is NOT a bug fix and smacks of nepotism. But hey, JMK has rejected automake/libtool support in favour of a sick'n'twisted build system that is fragile and aimed squarely at ubuntoo installs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
