How to uninstall pkg in macOS

Remove pkg manually

1. Check the package ID using $pkgutil --pkgs

   $ pkgutil --pkgs
   ...
   com.oll.pkg.CCRuntime
   com.AntiCC.RiD
   com.hciso.AntiCC
   ...
   

2. Get the location of the pkg you want to delete using $pkgutil --pkg-info <pkg id>

   $ pkgutil --pkg-info com.oll.pkg.CCRuntime
   package-id: com.oll.pkg.CCRuntime
   version: 2023.1
   volume: /
   location: 
   install-time: 1724439281
   

3. Delete .bom and all the files in the pkg location To delete the .bom files

   $ lsbom -fls  /private/var/db/receipts/com.oll.pkg.CCRuntime 
   

   the .bom files of all the pkg installed are located at /private/var/db/receipts. The install history is recorded at /Library/Receipts/InstallHistory.plist. Then delete all the files in the pkg location

   $ lsbom -fls  /private/var/db/receipts/com.oll.pkg.CCRuntime | (cd /; sudo xargs rm)
   $ lsbom -fls  /private/var/db/receipts/com.oll.pkg.CCRuntime | (cd /; sudo xargs rm -r)
   

4. Remove the pkg information at the end

   $ sudo pkgutil --forget com.oll.pkg.CCRuntime
