When you install software built from source, can it be removed with apt-get remove? Or just the handles?

Question

linux

if the question is stupid or something like that, I have never compiled software and don’t know how it’s done, I have enough repositories for now

Answer 1

You can only uninstall a package using the package manager if it was installed by the package manager. Otherwise, the package manager simply does not know what, where and how it was installed. And this is exactly why it is categorically contraindicated for everyone who uses packaged distributions to collect something on their own, with the exception of their own programs :)

Answer 2

You can build a package from the sources - you can install and remove it with a command.
If you do just make install, then apt cannot be aware of what this install is doing on the system.

Answer 3

See how to collect. If you build a package and then install it, then it is removed via apt-get remove .
If it's stupid to make install , then the fastest way is to work with your hands.

Answer 4

First make, then build the package with checkinstall, then you can remove it with the package manager
