Hi there,

I downloaded posix sources on ubuntu 24.04. I compiled it by make, then copied the ide to ~/.local/bin directory. When I run ide and choose "Clean UPPOUT" from the menu a prompt with such text appears: "Erase the whole output directory ?". After pressing OK the entire home directory is cleaned. It happened to me. You can imagine what troubles I had on ext4 filesystem Sad

The problem is that the field Ide::target is empty and the prompt question is misleading. I thought it should clean the usual folder in cache directory. Probably, it happened because no compile target was selected yet. "Clean UPPOUT" should forbid such scenario.
