can't uninstall wine in /usr/local

Post by Trevorofmolino »

installed wine 0.9.60.tar.bz2 to /usr/local/wine
./configure --verbose
make depend
# make install
then went thru wineconfig and it was working but kept getting error and ole errors. so I want to uninstall wine and get wine 1.0, but when I try to uninstall wine there is no /usr/local/wine there is only
bin games include lib man sbin share src directories.
If I go to bin and try to uninstall I get
[trevor@trevor bin]$ make uninstall
make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'. Stop.
[trevor@trevor bin]$ make uninstall wine
make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'. Stop.
so how do I uninstall when the directory I put it in no longer exists?

Then you mast have removed that directory. You can't "make" anything without Makefile. If you removed that dir - you can't "make uninstall"
The only thing you can do:
- Extract that tarbal somewhere (don't use /usr/local it's the wrong place)
- 'cd' into that directory and run './configure'
- Then run your 'sudo make uninstall'

BTW everything above you should be running as normal user not root.
