If you installed doing the triple step "./configure && make && make install" you can have luck and the software author did create an uninstall in the Makefile. Then "make uninstall" in the source directory will do what you want. If that isn't the case you will look where the "make install" step deploys the software's file to and erase them manually. Aber better way is to use RPMs or where no RPM is available nor you able to create one yourself, to use the checkinstall tool. The very big reason for using package managers like RPM is exactly the case you are asking about now.
