if you installed with apt - you can try apt-get purge nagios-text .
that will remove the package installed .
As for returning to  the source installed software - you might have to 
rerun the configure / make process to make sure the newer files are 
installed and used .

or you can use the blunt force method and rm every file related to 
nagios - but i wouldn't recommend it  , only as a last resort .
