You need to keep in mind that doing a make uninstall after an svn update
can leave stuff behind. The reason is that the cmake files might have
dropped targets completely (the kdev_starter utility for example) and
hence a make uninstall run after the svn up will automatically re-run
cmake (due to changed files) and then uninstall what it knows (which
leaves out any targets deleted meanwhile).

Additionally you seem to have switched installation prefixes, initially
using /usr, now using /usr/local. Thats why all kind of stuff is still
left in /usr/bin, /usr/include, /usr/lib etc.

Regarding non-deletion of directories, thats something you'll have to
take up with kde-buildsystem or the cmake developers.

Andreas, who usually installs into a dedicated prefix that he can just
rm -rf.
