[Monetdb-developers] help regarding installtion after changes
hello If the installation fails , how to remove the changes that installation has done. We are doing the changes to file gdk_relop.c and its .mx one and then using supertar ball we are trying to install it. Is it also possible that it doesn't install fully and still say installed successfully as earlier we have installed mserver separately from synaptic manager in ubuntu and it says succesfullly installed

- From development perspective I would always use CVS, and a dedicated installation directory.
cvs -z3 - -d:pserver:anonymous@monetdb.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/monetdb co -P clients MonetDB MonetDB5 buildtools sql sh doit-quick-debug.sh
Will get you an: /opt/monetdb-head
So if something fails, you can delete the entire /opt/monetdb-head, be descrete about your data directory though. If you look at the script the key component here is --prefix=/opt/monetdb-head that forces the installation in a specific direction.

If installed from binary packages, the respective package manager (in your case apparently synaptic) will provide your with an uninstall option.
If compiled and installed from tarball or CVS, you can call `make uninstall` in the build directory of each MonetDB package that you installed, in reverse order of dependencies, e.g., sql, MonetDB5, clients, MonetDB. (At least for the time being, you have to do this by hand also with the super source tarball, as the monetdb-install.sh script does not yet provide an "--uninstall" option.)
Apart from that, as Stefan de Koning just suggested, when compiling and installing from tarball or CVS, it is advisable (at least during development and/or trail periods) to use a dedicated installation prefix directory for MonetDB, that you can simply remove completely in case you need to clean-up thoroughly.
