I didn't know chkinstall, but also note that the lib Makefile has an 'uninstall'
target, so if you do:
# make uninstall
it will uninstall the libs, repligard and its config files, based on the current
installation paths, of course (this means it cannot be used if you already replaced
the sources).
You still have to delete the other files (mod_midgard.so, midgard-root.php[3] and
midgard.so) by hand though.
