If you install the files from the sources using make then make install, make can know how to uninstall the files. It knows were it installed them while it run "make install" so it knows how to uninstall them. This is quite a common behavior in most of unix programs (eg gimp: http://wwww.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1586429). In fact, if you look inside the build directory after running make then make install then you'll see a file called install_manifest.txt which cmake populated with all the files it installed during "make install". The patch I just send to the mailing list should add support for make uninstall, so please help test it.
