How do I uninstall MariaDB on Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr)? [duplicate]

I have installed MariaDB from source and now I need to uninstall it. I used these commands to install it:

wget http://mirrors.hustunique.com/mariadb/mariadb-10.0.14/source/mariadb-10.0.14.tar.gz
tar -zxvf mariadb-10.0.14.tar.gz
cd mariadb-10.0.14/
apt-get install cmake
apt-get install g++ openssl libssl-dev libncurses5-dev libboost-dev bison
cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/mysql \
  -DWITH_FEDERATED_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 -DWITH_SSL=system
make && make install

How do I uninstall it?

There are a few other options which might be of use:

sudo apt-get remove mariadb-server

This will remove just the mariadb-server package itself.

sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove mariadb-server

This will remove the mariadb-server package and any other dependant packages which are no longer needed.

If you also want to delete your local/config files for mariadb-server then this will work.

sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove mariadb-server

but be careful with that last one. See the disclaimer at the installion site
