Re: How to compile with --enable-nanorc?

I answered only to help-nano (hope it's fine)

I chose 2.9.8 because it's the latest version that doesn't need new debian
10 packages (i'm on debian 9) to avoid conflicts

> which nano
/usr/local/bin/nano

Another problem I have is when I type "dpkg -r nano" it says this
dpkg: warning: ignoring request to remove nano, only the config
 files of which are on the system; use --purge to remove them too


> strace nano README  2>TRAIL; grep -n access TRAIL | grep -n nanorc | less
7:62:access("/usr/local/etc/nanorc", R_OK)   = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
8:64:access("/home/my_server/.nanorc", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
9:65:access("/home/my_server/.config/nano/nanorc", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)

Ok seems like it doesn't look in the right directory

> Did you maybe compile and install nano at first without the --prefix=/usr
option?  If yes, then you need to configure it again without that option
and run 'make uninstall', to get rid of the nano in /usr/local/bin/.

And YES. I don't know where it should install normally, I found the prefix
here
https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/nano
so that may be it
I just tried to "make uninstall" (with and without sudo), it did something
but nano is still installed on 2.9.8 after that
