As already mentioned, if the developer of the software has included an "uninstall" target in the makefile, you can simply do
if not you can always repeat the install step, this time saving the standard output in a file:
Code:
# make install > install.log 2>&1
this just overwrites the currently installed files without any clue.
Then you can follow the install.log file line by line and manually reverse the installation steps. It is a simple task, since usually the installation is just a copying of all compiled files (together with manual pages and other stuff) to the system directories.
