[flashrom] Re: Build systems and `uinstall` option

[Joursoir]

Hello Thomas,

Of course, `uninstall`/`install` options should be performed by the
package manager, but not limited to this. Otherwise, why do we need
`install` option in the Makefile?

It's just strange, that a person can download flashrom sources, use
`install` options and then find out that there's no `uninstall` option.
