TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ?

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq

hi,

have you customized your installation as instructed in the postgresql
manual page?
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/interactive/install-procedure.html
any way you have goto your source directory where you have started
your installation and give the command
# make clean
# make dist clean
and remove the directory.
It should work in most of the cases.

There's actually a make uninstall rule, too.
