Hi Shiva,

How exactly did "make uninstall" no work?  Keep in mind that oprofile needs to be configured for "make uninstall" to work.

OProfile does install some additional librarys, but it is unlikely to significantly affect libraries for other things.  If the software that is having this problem is in a git repository you might try to check out earlier versions and see if a specific patch is causing this problem.
