Hi, I'm one of the guys that had the icon problem with Inkscape 0.38. I want to try and make a completely clean install of the program. What should I remove from my system?
- executables
- shared files
- libs?
Where are they all located?
Generally, applications install under either /usr or /usr/local depending on how things are configured. On my system they install under /usr so the places to look are:
/usr/bin/ink* /usr/local/share/inkscape/
There's also some man pages that are installed, but you probably won't care about those. I don't know if there are any libraries that inkscape installs - I don't think so...
Note that you may be able to just do `make uninstall` and get everything removed.
On the other hand, is it safe to do this? I mean I think it wouldn't compromise my box's stability
Uninstalling inkscape wouldn't compromise your box's stability. If you accidentally delete /lib/*, well you're on your own there. ;-)
Thank you very much for your answers.
By the way, could you check your character encoding settings? For some reason when I get your emails, pine won't display them (I can dig the text out of my mail spool, but it's a bit of a hassle).
