Re: This is a new one

[Joel Esler <joel.esler () sourcefire com>]

If you are trying to compile from a tarball,  and you haven't moved  
the files around,  just delete the expanded directory that the tarball  
made when you expanded it.

You can also descend into the directory before you delete it and type  
'make uninstall'  which will remove any files it may have moved into  
the bin directories,  etc.
