Oh joy, of course I sent it to Tom only instead of everyone. Classic me.

Wouldn't an uninstall option be a good thing for panda? I don't know how insulated a Perl 6 package is from the rest of the installed packages, but I remember on more than one occasion wishing CPAN and Perl 5 packages had an uninstall option when an installation somehow got corrupted.

It's planned: https://github.com/tadzik/panda/issues/99 Planned for a while though, patiently waiting for someone to take a closer look at it :) But the way panda stores keeps the state of installed packages is designed in such a way that it should be able to automatically clean the unneeded dependencies after it uninstalls a package. So: panda can't do it yet, but it's been my intention all along for it to be able to. boost::regards, tadzik
