How can I install it to /usr/local/bin? And do I have to deinstall it by
manually deleting all the installed files?

I can't see it listed by the panel plugins and if I launch it in a
terminal I get

$ xfce4-popup-whiskermenu
/usr/local/bin/xfce4-popup-whiskermenu: line
3: /usr/local/bin/xfce4-panel: No such file or directory

$ sudo make deinstall

$ cat ../INSTALL

  3. `cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..' to configure the sources.
     There are more options you can pass to cmake, see below for details.

  6. `make install DESTDIR=/tmp' to install the plugin into /tmp but
     with paths referencing $CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.

So I have to run

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..

and later

make install DESTDIR=/usr/local

instead of running

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..

?

And now I have to deinstall it by running

sudo rm /usr/local/bin/xfce4-popup-whiskermenu

and I keep the rest:
