Does 'make uninstall' work?

Hello again,

I found out that if you examine closely your Makefile, you can see if there is an uninstall option. It's only possible if you have your source folder though.
Like this:

uninstall::
rm -f ${DESTDIR}${sysconfdir}/bind.keys
rm -f ${DESTDIR}${mandir}/man1/bind9-config.1
rm -f ${DESTDIR}${mandir}/man1/isc-config.sh.1
rm -f ${DESTDIR}${bindir}/bind9-config
rm -f ${DESTDIR}${bindir}/isc-config.sh

So I guess, I can run "make uninstall".
Thanks.


Have a nice day :)

Subject: Does 'make uninstall' work?

Hello,

I am planning to upgrade my bind 9.11.5 to 9.11.19 due to recently detected security vulnerabilities.
Since I compiled from source when I build my bind, I am wondering how I should upgrade.

Does 'make uninstall' command work? I have a source folder remained.
Or do I need to compile a newer version with a different prefix and make a link?

Which one is the safest way? If make uninstall doesn't work, how do you guys upgrade your compiled bind?

I appreciate any suggestions.
Thank you.


Have a nice day :)
