Uninstalling Vim compiled from source

I compiled and installed vim according to these instructions https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/wiki/Building-Vim-from-source

But After installing I deleted the source directory So,How do I uninstall vim now ?

I am using Ubuntu 13.04


To uninstall vim, you can just download again the sources and run in the source directory :

make VIMRUNTIMEDIR=/usr/share/vim/vim73
sudo make uninstall

replacing /usr/share/vim/vim73 by the one you used for installation.


You have to run make distclean before make VIMRUNTIMEDIR=...

cd ~/tmp
hub clone vim/vim
cd vim
make distclean <---
make VIMRUNTIMEDIR=/usr/local/share/vim/vim80
sudo make uninstall
