Hi - thanks for all the good work on this!
I have been using an older version of the ETS, which I got when I installed the EPD (4.0.30001) and now I have finally gotten around to trying to update my ETS to this version. I have a question - how do I go about uninstalling my previous version of the ETS? A more general question to anyone - what's the right way of uninstalling any old python package? In the past, I have been advised to go in and run "rm -rf" on the directory inside my site-packages directory (and remove stuff from "easy-install.pth"?), but in the case of ETS, I am not even sure which directories in there belong to ETS. Is there some elegant way of uninstalling python packages?
