rm. :)

Some programs have a 'make uninstall'. Others you just have to pick
apart by hand. If you install each third-party package in
/usr/local/stow/<package> and use stow to create a symlink farm in
/usr/local, then uninstalling is a matter of 'cd /usr/local/stow; stow
-D <package>; rm -rf <package>'.
