uninstalling octave

i installed v 2.1.73 first, and then decided to upgrade to v 2.9.12. when i run
any plot function, it tells me that it runs the compare_versions function and
that it fails (an error message). this is followed by multiple other error
messages about evaulating command lines later.
what i tried to do was uninstall octave 2.1.73 so that there wouldnt be a
comparison--unfortunately i am running fedora core 5 linux without internet,
and i have to remove all files by hand. i ran 'make clean' and 'make distclean'
in the octave 2.1.73 directory and then deleted the directory itself. the
compare_versions function is still running, and giving an error. are there any
files that i would've missed in trying to clear them out?
it would also be fine to delete all versions of octave and reinstall. are there
any directions for this? without using add/remove software...
thanks! i appreciate the help.
