Sometimes a developer includes a nice uninstall script, sometimes not. In either case, I usually use Pacifist to inspect the contents of the .pkg and see where they are installed:

That's at least definitive and a few times I actually used it as a guide to manually remove files.

Hey all

While testing the different Pd builds with different JACK versions, I wondered how JACK can be uninstalled cleanly. Both JACK versions I want to try come as a pkg, which installs a bunch of files to different places. From what I gather, there is no straight-forward way to remove everything reliably installed from a pkg. So I ask here, if there is an agreed-upon way to remove one version of JACK before the other one is installed. I usually wiped all jack* binaries in /usr/local/bin and the /usr/local/include/jack directory before re-installing JACK packages. I remember that colleagues had mixed experiences regarding Pd seeing JACK with the same build of Pd. I suspect this could be related to some having had left-overs from previous JACK installations.

For reproducible results I'd like to know how you went about this.
