Description Henrique Ferreiro 2007-01-24 18:01:55 UTC 
I think this feature could be usefull.
Comment 1 B S Srinidhi 2007-12-03 19:00:35 UTC 
+1

It would help keep things clean.
Comment 2 Frederic Peters 2007-12-03 20:03:33 UTC 
'jhbuild run --in-builddir module make uninstall' does the trick, isn't that enough for module uninstallation?  Would you give more details on what would be needed here?
Comment 3 B S Srinidhi 2007-12-03 21:06:20 UTC 
Ah! Never knew about that option. But, you'll have to manually run this command for each module that you are building.

If a target was available like the existing 'clean', 'dist' and 'distcheck' targets, it would be a lot easier to do an uninstall during build.
Comment 4 Frederic Peters 2009-05-16 13:44:44 UTC 
I finally refactored the whole build steps part, and added an uninstall command along the way.
