The right thing would be saving the list of all installed files during the build and have "make uninstall" remove exactly the files that were installed.

This is what I do here at PSI when installing files into shared locations. Every module writes a list (manifest) of installed files into the shared install location. Then "make uninstall" reads the manifest to know what to delete. The module name is part of the file name.

For example QT ui files: .iocStats-1.2.12-QT.txt contains
'iocStats_CA_DETAILS.ui' 'iocStats_overview.ui' 'iocStats_Proscan_overview.ui' 'iocStats_SF_overview.ui' 'iocStats_small.ui' 'iocStats.ui' 'start_iocStats'

To have separate QT directories for separate modules would not be very practical. One would need extremely long search paths which could lead to other problems.
