I recent went to uninstall somafm and unfortunately did not thoroughly examine the Makefile. When I installed, I set the bindir to my user's bin directory. And when I ran make uninstall months later, I've now deleted my user bin directory.

Should probably use a more fine grained approach to removing the installed files to prevent others doing the same thing.
