[Pan-users] Silly question about make install/uninstall

[Benjamin Esham]

Hi all,

I'm used to relying on Fink for all of my packaging needs, so  
compiling pan on my own has raised a couple of newbie questions.  In  
my current setup, I cd to pan's directory, and do ./configure && make  
&& make install.  When a new version comes out, I do make uninstall  
in the old version's directory, and then ./configure && make && make  
install in the new version's directory.

My question is, is it necessary to keep the entire old pan directory  
around until I build a new version?  I realize that I'm not using a  
package manager for this, and that things would be easier if I were,  
but is there any way to keep track of which files I need to uninstall  
without the entire pan directory being kept around?

Thanks for any clarification with this,
