Removing Python Binaries with make command
Hi I have installed Python3 with running ./configure , make and then make installand now can't find an option in Makefile to remove the binaries with make command. Is there a way to cleanly remove Python3 Binaries after compiling on a system ? ThanksDB

There is no way AFAIK. That what CheckInstall[1] is for but you should have used it before make install. 1. http://asic-linux.com.mx/~izto/checkinstall/index.php PS. And such questions belong to python-list, I think, rather than python-dev which is about developing Python, not using it.

It could arguably considered a bug report. On Mon, Feb 23, 2015 at 9:48 AM, Oleg Broytman <phd@phdru.name> wrote:

Is there a way to cleanly remove Python3 Binaries after compiling on a system ?
Sorry, there's is no explicit `make uninstall`. Since most people either use the installers for Windows or OS X or use their Linux distro's installer I don't know if anyone has tried to write a `make uninstall` command.
