Uninstalling Tar

[Dark Ninja]

I've installed a .tar.gz program. (./configure, etc, etc) How do I go about uninstalling it?

Go to the top of the source tree (where you executed ./configure, make, make install), and type:

make uninstall

You kept your Makefile, right? ;)

You should read the install instructions.
Sometimes you can get away by typing "make clean" if I`m not mistaken.
Make uninstall doesn`t always work.
