That doesn't get the stuff in /usr/local/bin or /usr/local/include or
probably some other directories.
If you are not using a package system and you want to be able to
easily remove a complete version of Octave (or any other package that
you install from source), then something like
--prefix=/usr/local/octave/2.9.2
works well. Then you can just remove the complete
/usr/local/octave/2.9.2 directory tree and you're done.
