Anyone know how to uninstall cobalt .pkg files? I installed the mySQL one and then found I could get better mySQL solution by installing mysql from the .tar.gz file. Email me at josh@webtechsoftware.com, ICQ me at 31008211 or AIM me at wtssupport or post to this thread if you know how to uninstall .pkg files.

Most packages include an uninstallation (shut up, its a word :D) that can be found in the directory:

/var/lib/cobalt/uninstallers

Of course you have to be root, etc to run it.
