Hey mates,
When I do the regular install dance [./configure, make, make install]
the problem I end up with, is that the installed program does not show
on yum, so I cannot update/remove/etc...
yum is a frontend for the rpm database/packages. If you do a
./configure, make, make install then you install something without
having a rpm package. Most of the software have an uninstall
section in the makefile, so if you change into your source
directory do a make uninstall.
