why do I need babl to UNINSTALL gimp?

Hi,

I just wanted to clean out multiple gimp installations and went to uninstall a gimp cvs build.

make uninstall ....

checking for gmsgfmt... (cached) /usr/bin/gmsgfmt checking for xgettext... (cached) /usr/bin/xgettext checking for iso-codes... yes
checking for BABL... configure: error: Package requirements (babl >= 0.0.23) were not met:

Requested 'babl >= 0.0.23' but version of babl is 0.0.22

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables BABL_CFLAGS and BABL_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.

make: *** [config.status] Error 1

Do I really need to pull babl , build and install it just to UNINSTALL Gimp ??

TIA.

make uninstall

I am not that good at reading Makefiles, but I don't think uninstall does anything and you are just doing a make?

Hence the requirement for a newer babl

Thanks Owen, that would explain the error but I thought make reported something like "no rule for target uninstall" if it got fed crap.

maybe there's some default target in the gimp Makefiles that matches a non existent target. :?

Well, looking at the my Makefile (recent git build, line 873) it reads;

uninstall: uninstall-recursive

Which doesn't seem to go anywhere. Just another mystery for me

The uninstall-recursive target is enumerated in the RECURSIVE_TARGETS variable. All recursive targets are defined in one place, look for $(RECURSIVE_TARGETS):. It basically calls subdirs and invokes the uninstall-am target, which is defined as uninstall-am: uninstall-binSCRIPTS uninstall-pkgconfigDATA.
