Using checkinstall
instead of make install
makes uninstalling of software much easier (sudo apt-get remove
, Synaptic or Software Center).
CheckInstall keeps track of all the files created or modified by your installation script, builds a standard binary package (.deb, .rpm, .tgz) and installs it in your system giving you the ability to uninstall it with your distribution's standard package management utilities.
