That's it, don't ask why I'd need it.

Hello. Could you check, please, it xargs rm < install_manifest.txt does what you want?

Hi
it comes very close to a perfect uninstall.
Unless you've passed a --prefix pointing to a "personal" destination or you are running as root, you must sudo the make install, for this reason the rm should also be "sudoed"
Anyway, the removal removes all the files

$ xargs sudo rm -v < install_manifest.txt
removed ‘/usr/local/bin/brotli’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlienc.so.1.0.7’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlienc.so.1’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlienc.so’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlidec.so.1.0.7’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlidec.so.1’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlidec.so’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlicommon.so.1.0.7’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlicommon.so.1’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlicommon.so’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlienc-static.a’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlidec-static.a’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/libbrotlicommon-static.a’
removed ‘/usr/local/include/brotli/decode.h’
removed ‘/usr/local/include/brotli/encode.h’
removed ‘/usr/local/include/brotli/port.h’
removed ‘/usr/local/include/brotli/types.h’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libbrotlicommon.pc’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libbrotlidec.pc’
removed ‘/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libbrotlienc.pc’

but leaves behind an empty folder

$ sudo find /usr -name brotli
/usr/local/include/brotli
