Can somebody talk me through a scons uninstall? The building ardour page skips little details like what directory you need to be in when executing commands.
You need to be in the Ardour source code directory, like /usr/src/ardour-2.8.11 for example (or wherever you unpacked it).
Uhhh… I deleted that directory after installing…
I’m not sure if it works but you could try unpacking the tarball again and run the command.
I always install compiled programs to /opt/name-and-version-of-program and use “stow” to populate /usr/local with symlinks. That way it’s dead easy to ununstall; just unstow the symlinks and remove the /opt/name directory.
