In addition, attempts to uninstall CacheFu (hoping for an uninstall

Please help me to get past these errors and get CacheFu working again?

Is this the same instance where all this crazy stuff happened...

It looks like your CacheFu installation is all messed up.
I believe you've already fixed issue [1] ... but not before
incorrectly deleting a bunch of stuff manually...
Then you eventually got to issue [2]... which appears to suggest that
you've got an object inside the cache_tool object (a folderish content
type) that is not a legal content type (hence missing the
'portal_type' attribute). You can probably tweak the template so as
to not choke on this but this instance is so messed up that a complete
uninstall sounds in order.
Which then gets us to issue [3] during an uninstall... This one is a
bit of mystery to me. Something is confusing the quickinstaller.
Quickinstaller "memorizes" the types that were installed along with a
product and I'm guessing it's memory is now all messed up. I'm not
exactly sure how to fix this but if you poke around in the
quickinstaller tool in the ZMI, you'll see a 'Contents' tab. Maybe
try deleting the cachefu-related stuff in this tab (CMFSquidTool and
CacheSetup). Then, again in the ZMI, manually delete the offending
items at the portal root... probably just 'caching_policy_manager',
'portal_cache_settings', and 'portal_squid'. Then remove the
'cache_setup' layer from the active skin definition (/portal_skins/
manage_propertiesForm) -- don't bother trying to remove the
cache_setup layer folder itself, this is unimportant. Now restart and
hopefully you will now see the CacheSetup product in the uninstalled
column in the plone_control_panel (or directly in the quickinstaller
tool). Cross you fingers and try an install.
Warning: This is all untested. Hopefully you've got backups before
you try anything this crazy.
