So let's say I knew someone who compiled mplayer from source and
installed it (make install), and let's say this person now wished to
uninstall mplayer in favor of installing an rpm instead.  If this person
still had the source laying around (this person was short on disk space
and therefore wiped out the whole source tree) he or she could easily go
to the source directory and type make uninstall, correct?  What does one
do when the source is no longer located on the hard drive?  Download the
source again and type make uninstall?  Seems a little silly, but I, I
mean uh, this person could do it if that's the only good way.

Thanks,

Bryan
