Unless you specified a prefix to `configure` it should have overwritten the old libgeany.
My recipe that ensures a specific version (and doesn't touch your normal install) is: ``` mkdir /some/where cd /some/where git clone <the url> cd geany ./autogen.sh --prefix=/some/where make install cd ../bin ./geany -c ../config ``` And as @codebrainz said above I'm pretty sure it sets -g itself in that situation. And just `rm -rf /some/where` when you have finished, nothing is placed outside that tree. --- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/848#issuecomment-168622390
