Nice.
I hope the --clean + --prefix behaviour will work the same way as
--clean + --install (to uninstall). That was actually the most
annoying to me (though you comforted me on this point indeed!). For
prefix though, it is still nice to come back to "known grounds", hence
avoiding to have to remember 10.000 various install procedures. :-)
Thanks.
