That really depends on how it was installed.  If installed via RPM, then
you do 'rpm -e postgrespackagenameshere'.  If it was installed from
source, 'make uninstall'. or rm -Rf /usr/local/pgsql or whereever else you
might have installed it to.

Hello Scott,

I forgot to mention that, it was installed from source. Thanks for
anwsering.
