  • sudo make install
    I've used a tool called porg. [0] Hadn't heard of checkinstall but it seems similar but with integration into the distro's package manager. [0] https://porg.sourceforge.net/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
  • How do I uninstall Tintin++?
    Mac uses some BSD derivative right? If you compiled it from source then "make uninstall" should work. Alternatively you can catch which files are installed by "make", via various other programs. For instance https://porg.sourceforge.net/ offers that, but it may be too advanced for this task. The "poor man's" approach is to just look which files were installed during make and then delete these files/directories... Source: over 1 year ago
