Thanks Chuck,
that seemed to work, though it's not entirely obvious nor intuitive.
Surely it's fairly straightforward to add a make uninstall target that does the
equivalent of xargs rm < install_manifest.txt'? I imagine it can be done
portably using cmake commands but at the worst we could stick in a trivial
python program.
Interesting that you say "the one time I uninstalled" TBH I've always had to
make uninstall every time I've previously upgraded qpid versions 'cause I'd get
weird build problems, I guess due to ld finding the old library versions before
new ones. Perhaps that was an issue with the automake make system, but to me it
just "feels right" to start from a clean slate. Not having a "make uninstall"
just feels weird.
Anyway the xargs thing seems to be OK though I think it's worth adding to the
README as we move to cmake.
still can't get the cmake install to work though :-( I should've waited 'til
Alan got back off holiday :-D
Let me have it :)
