I installed Image Magic in /home/nsadmin and then removed the ImageMagic-6.2.6 folder .I tried installing it again in usr/local but it gives 2 errors

make[1]: *** [install-exec-perl] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/ImageMagick-6.2.6'
make: *** [install-am] Error 2

Then i tried manually removing all the ImageMagic files in lib directory but i don't know the other programs in bin directory i need to remove.How do i uninstall it completely and start again.Also i'm not able to use locate command to locate all the files related to ImageMagic.
Please help

Anjali ... After you install image magic you need to set the parameter -ImageMagickPath - for the photo-album package about the location of the directory where all the image magic commands ( identify , convert .. etc) are available. Generally it should be present in the /usr/local/bin directory ..

Thanks.I am aware of that but i am stuck with the installation itself.Unknowingly I've removed the directory where Image Magic was installed.Now i can't find out which files in lib ,bin and include belong to ImageMagic so that i can remove them manually and start from the scratch.
Do reply

Try installing again from source. You donnot need to remove manually the files in *nix. Generally the re installation overwrites binaries. Did you get this message when you tried installing as root?
