make uninstall throws /bin/sh: Argument list too long

[jdsierral]

I'm guessing this should be a pretty easy fix although clearly not a very urgent one

I'm getting Argument list too long while reading from install_manifest.txt in build/MakeFile Probably replacing this line rm -f $(installedfiles) $(installLog) with something like

while read line; do
  rm -f "$line"
done < faustdir/install_manifest.txt

This happened to me in macOS Catalina just in case ;)

Hope this helps and sorry if I'm way off XD

Should be fixed on master-dev branch, can you test and report?

Yup I think it is working now :)

Is the expected behavior that the tree structure for example in usr/local/include/faust/** is preserved? and only the files are deleted?

Also I made the mistake of running make uninstall and of course all the files said Permission Denied except faustdir/install_manifest.txt so when I tried sudo make uninstall I got No rule to make target faustdir/install_manifest.txt', needed by uninstall'. Stop.

I did install to get the manifest and then sudo make uninstall and it worked without a problem but wanted to let you know just in case

Hope it helps ;)
