I know that the Makefile has a uninstall option and I am installing everything in /opt/emacsX However I still prefer to generate a Debian pkg, since it allows me to access the installed emacs via Debian pkg. For this is use checkinstall and (auto-apt, auto-apt however has been removed in more recent versions of Debian/Ubuntu). On the other hand mercurial provides a deb target in its Makefile (which looks also a bit complicated). Does anybody (Users of Debian/Ubuntu) generate a deb when compiling emacs from git. Would he/she mind to share the configure file. Wouldn't it a good idea if the official Makefile also contains a deb target?
