See if the Makefile has an "unsinstall" target. If not, go to the
source directory and do a "make -n install >> file-list". This will
execute the Makefile without actually doing anything, and the output
will be saved in "file-list". From that, you can figure out what all
changes were made by "make install".

I usually do this before actually installing anything.
