Poof is a command line utility to list and uninstall/remove macOS packages.
*NO WARRANTY* DON'T BLAME ME if you destroy your installation!
NEVER REMOVE com.apple.* packages unless you know what you are doing.
How it works:
It first removes all files and directories declared by the package and
then forget the metadata (the receipt data).
Get poof:
$ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ruda/poof/master/poof.py
$ chmod +x poof.py
Usage:
List packages (but ignore all from Apple).
$ ./poof.py | grep -v com.apple.pkg
com.accessagility.wifiscanner
com.adobe.pkg.FlashPlayer
com.amazon.Kindle
com.christiankienle.CoreDataEditor
com.ea.realracing2.mac.bv
com.google.pkg.GoogleVoiceAndVideo
com.google.pkg.Keystone
com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp
com.lightheadsw.caffeine
com.Logitech.Control Center.pkg
...
Remove FlashPlayer (com.adobe.pkg.FlashPlayer).
$ sudo ./poof.py com.adobe.pkg.FlashPlayer
...
Forgot package 'com.adobe.pkg.FlashPlayer' on '/'.
