I probably used the word "cleaning" in a bit too wide context. What I  
meant by "cleaning" was not only "deleting the files I just  
installed" but rather "reverting the whole system to the pre-wrong- 
install state". This _may_ involve more work than just deleting the  
files and also... I somehow mistakenly took as granted that there was  
no uninstall. I am not sure how long it is there but I remember  
looking for it some long time ago and then just accepting it not  
being there... ;-)

Thank you very much!

Great! Once the build process stopped assuming that every system has  
linux specific tools for building html docs (namely the sgml2html  
AFAIR) available, those two were the only remaining little eyesores  
to me. As for the GNU make - I'd have to check the sources if I am  
not babbling BS but wouldn't it be just as easy as passing a proper  
DEF? I think most make-s accept that?

Best regards and thank you for taking our arguments into consideration.
