It may be possible, depending on whether or not the install put a BOM
(bill of materials) in the receipts directory. If it did, then try the
following:
lsbom -f -l -s
/Library/Receipts/program_name_goes_here/Contents/Archive.bom | (cd /;
sudo xargs rm)
But first make sure that:
1) A receipt was put there.
2) The BOM was also put there (jump over to the Receipts directory,
find the program listing, control-click to open it (Contents) as a
folder and look for the Archive.bom or something very similar.
