Hi:

Sometimes when I 'make deinstall' I get a message that a certain director 
could not be fully deleted, or some other thing can not be done to 
completely eliminate or clean the install.  This is true even when I have 
'su'-ed to root.  For example, I recently deinstalled apache and it 
complained that it couldn't completely remove three directories (I don't 
remember the exact ones, something like: /usr/local/www ,for example.  Can 
someone explain why this happens?  Are their any lingering effects?  For 
example, I would like to reinstall Apache at some point, will an incomplete 
'deinstall' cause any problems?

John
