Not necessarily. You may compile software from source and install it with the standard (./configure; make; make install) build method.=20 However, software installed without the package manager (rpm) don't get any of its benefits. If you install from source, you can not verify the files using rpm -V.=20 You also can't remove them using rpm -e. =20 Most software "makefiles" have a rule to uninstall the software. If you still have the source tree around, you can 'cd' there and 'make uninstall'. > I had probleme with MM siftware (brahms) and in fact I don't have any > needs of multimedia player,viewer, listener... on my server. I'm not sure I follow that statement. Red Hat Linux includes xmms for playing mp3 and ogg files (among others...). If you want to view video files, your best bet is to install xine or mplayer. You can find them on http://freshmeat.net. Xine provides rpm packages for RHL 7.2. > So when rpm -qa | grep brahms -> nothing found That's to be expected if you compiled the software yourself. > I know I made a bad installation in the sense I installedll packages from > the CD... > but I run a server !! So what's the matter ?! Can it be swap proc system = ? Not following this either. Installing packages from the CD is a proper way to install software. What do you mean by 'swap proc system'? > By the way lets comme to my first problem How can i uninstall a program o= r a > soft > that rpm -qa | grep thisFprogram don't find... You don't. rpm manages software installed or packages in rpm format.=20 If you compile it yourself, you have to manage it yourself, too. See if the software provides for 'make uninstall'. --=_ascension.dragonsdawn.net-30635-1017367798-0001-2 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEUEABECAAYFAjyjzPUACgkQ0rdf78Ca6+tOvwCgoNUknvkV6gkbQ916LE9KVTZO Fk4AmIzw0ZLOmXjChEP4OX4chYtpy/A= =YaFA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=_ascension.dragonsdawn.net-30635-1017367798-0001-2-- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
