<title>Cleaning Up</title>
<para>Finally, clean up some extra files left around from running tests:</para>
<screen><userinput>rm -rf /tmp/*</userinput></screen>
<para>There are also several files installed in the /usr/lib and /usr/libexec
directories with a file name extension of .la. These are "libtool archive"
files. As already said, they are only useful when linking with static
libraries. They are unneeded, and potentially harmful, when using dynamic
shared libraries, specially when using also non-autotools build systems.
To remove them, run:</para>
<screen><userinput>find /usr/lib /usr/libexec -name \*.la -delete</userinput></screen>
<para>For more information about libtool archive files, see the <ulink
url="&blfs-book;introduction/la-files.html">BLFS section "About Libtool
Archive (.la) files"</ulink>.</para>
<para>The compiler built in <xref linkend="chapter-temporary-tools"/> and
<xref linkend="chapter-chroot-temporary-tools"/> is still partially
installed and not needed anymore. Remove it with:</para>
<screen><userinput>find /usr -depth -name $(uname -m)-lfs-linux-gnu\* | xargs rm -rf</userinput></screen>
<para>Finally, remove the temporary 'tester' user account created at the
beginning of the previous chapter.</para>
<screen><userinput>userdel -r tester</userinput></screen>
