[Samba] Can I make uninstall?

[Robert Wooden]

I have installed from source Samba 4.6.5 into default /usr/local/samba
(Ubuntu) directory.

So, to be clear, you are saying that I can delete the /usr/local/samba
directory and re-compile (install from source) and I will have a fresh
install of Samba?
