[Xen-devel] BUG - make uninstall deletes my config files
Hi, The uninstall target of the xen source distribution does not only delete any file installed by xen, but it seems to completely delete /etc/xen, so all my self-created config files have just been deleted when I did that. The uninstall target should definitely only delete files it copied at install time, and try to rmdir /etc/xen, which fails if a user added own config files.

[Xen-devel] Fwd: BUG - make uninstall deletes my config files
Hi, I happily found out these days that the xen sources include an uninstall make target. But the happiness didn''t last too long: The uninstall target of the xen source distribution does not only delete any file installed by xen, but it seems to completely delete /etc/xen, so all my self-created config files have just been deleted when I used taht target. The uninstall target should definitely only delete files it copied at install time, and try to rmdir /etc/xen, which fails if a user added own config files.
