I cloned samba from git to samba-master with
clone git git://git.samba.org/samba.git samba-master
and did
git pull
It downloaded from git and I figured I would only get the latest stable version of Samba. I was on 4.0.6 and wanted 4.0.9.
I only want stable versions of Samba, but by mistake I installed Samba 4.2.0pre and now I want to remove it.
How do I do that?
//edit
I first cloned it from git.samba.org into samba-master with the command:
git clone git://git.samba.org/samba.git samba-master
I then did cd samba-master
from / and started:
./configure --enable-debug --enable-selftest
make
make install
The install directory is
/usr/local/samba
I have put the install directory in /etc/environment

The
samba
source compiler might actually have an "uninstall" command as part of the makefile that can remove the software.Try doing
make uninstall
ormake remove
. If the makefile was created sanely then it's likely one of those two commands might actually remove the software compiled by the source throughmake
andmake install
.
