removing manually installed programs?


Recommended Posts

hello!

 

I want to uninstall a program that I compiled through source, but strangly enough in my 5 years of linux I have never done it with out apt-get! can someone tell me how to?

If it doesn't have that, run make -n install and that will show you what files would be installed (without actually installing them) and any other commands that would be run as part of it so you can manually remove them or reverse whatever extra commands are run.
