At first glance, it looks relevantly trivial to implement "uninstall",
at least in a way that will work reliably on GNU systems. But I'm
most probably missing some important details.
Giuseppe, if I find the time to work on this, would you accept a patch
(for 3.0, it seems useless to work on 2.0.x)? Of course provided that
the patch is not crappy :-) I think that every GNU package should
support "uninstall", it is a standard target and something that users,
not surprisingly at all, expect.
@rant
Maybe, just maybe, the developers of Firefox (and Mozilla/Netscape
before, as it seems the build system is kinda inherited from that time),
thought that this is a marvelous ``must have'' lovely application that
nobody will ever dare to uninstall, hence they refrained from
implementing this ``unimportant'' functionality. Or maybe their target
users are not running free operating systems in the first place.
