What's 'deletionism'? Is it the act of being fastidious regarding everything under '/usr'? If so, count me in. One of my biggest gripes with the aged Linux install ritual is having to keep the source bundle forever in case I ever decide to uninstall. Why? Because the autoconf makefile is the only rule that cleans up all the bins, docs, and shared files that were sprayed into the OS. Building from source needs an uninstall fix, but no one seems to care. (Or I simply don't understand how w/o keeping the build folder forever... Help?)
