This gives you a logfile with a record of ever file installed to make sure you don't forget anything to remove. I find the –record option of easy_install very usefull.

Then, when I need to delete it, I: Delete the egg. Remove the mention of the egg in the whatever.pth file in site-packages. Delete any scripts, etc. that it installed. It's not as nice as I'd like, but it definitely works. My approach is to pay careful attention whenever I easy_install something. Then, when I need to delete it, I:
