I installed a bunch of software.
Then I removed most of it.
I used a variety of methods. AppCleaner for some things,
mdfind -name 'Adobe Flash' |parallel rm -rf {}
for others.
I removed app store software in by clicking on the little "x", and then manually cleaned out all the stuff that did not get removed.
I've gone after the receipts and .bom files.
I enabled locate
, in order to get it all.
However, the Installations option in "System Information" continues to display software that is gone.
I find this disheartening, and confusing.
What strategies do I need to employ to perform the equivalent of say,
aptitude purge foo
?
The software is gone. I can reinstall it via App Store or other methods. Where have I missed? Pls advise.
