How to uninstall? #51

Closed debnath-d closed 2 years ago

debnath-d commented 2 years ago

Back in January 2020 (commit f411876086099638677d35c4cc023e5d046eff6a), I had installed this manually using sudo make install.

Now, I'm trying to install the AUR package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kwin-effects-yet-another-magic-lamp but I'm getting an error

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
kwin-effects-yet-another-magic-lamp: /usr/lib/qt/plugins/kwin/effects/configs/kwin_yetanothermagiclamp_config.so exists in filesystem
kwin-effects-yet-another-magic-lamp: /usr/lib/qt/plugins/kwin/effects/plugins/libkwin4_effect_yetanothermagiclamp.so exists in filesystem

Please tell me how to cleanly uninstall the previous manual installation, so that I can switch to the AUR package.

Okay, answering my own question here. The build/install_manifest.txt lists all the files installed when sudo make install is run. Just manually delete these files.
