VC installer shows the option to remove but if selected it states that is doesn't uninstall. It may be small, but I don't like leaving files linger around If I can avoid it.

On the build directory of vc there is file called "install_manifest.txt" it lists all files installed by Vc. To unisntall the script could

"cat install_manifest.txt | xargs rm"

having tmp files is good for things to forget, but for error logs might be a good idea to keep them around.

compile messages are not always useless but everything is a bit too much.
I would save all messages to the compilscripts folder. For that I found a good solution on the web. I tried to adapt to be smaller, but It didn't quite work so I leave it as I found it

• Get script directory
  scriptDir="$( cd "$( dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" && pwd )"
• Log errors
  make -j$numCores 2>> $project_error.log
• Log everything
  make -j$numCores 1>> /tmp/$project_log.log 2>> $scriptDir/$project_error.log

That logs in a very basic way. Maybe a developer could help us get a better solution.

I have no idea if this will work on every system but on xfce it I call the terminal with the "-e" flag I get the terminal running the script.

The flag also works with "aterm", probably it would be a good idea to check with terminals are available, using "which" or some sort of bash witchcraft

The command
if [ $TERM != "xterm" ] ; then terminal -e "$(pwd)/krita-install.sh" ; fi

I placed it before the line containing
"# Script version"

This word on xfce. when I double click in thunar it launches the terminal with the script running.

*UPDATE: on my machine I erased "xterm" in favor of "aterm", so the comment below won't work on my particular gentoo customization but It could be a safe bet to use "xterm" as the comment below states because i explicitly removed xterm"

New compilscript users will not be able to install using the script as krita fails building from vc compiled from master.

I corrected my "new" vc like this

git checkout 0.7.0

and compile
