Create a script for complete uninstallation of Python on MacOS #145016
Description
Feature or enhancement
Proposal:
You offer the standard .pkg for MacOS users to install Python. However, I had to wade through a few StackExchange answers to completely delete it later because your instructions on docs.python.org:
"To uninstall Python, you can remove these three things" aren't clear enough.
I want to read something like "5.1.3. Uninstallation steps", "To completely uninstall Python from MacOS, remove thing 1 (Python folder in your Applications folder), thing 2 (A framework /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework), thing 3 (symlinks to Python in /usr/local/bin/), thing 4 (a reference in shell path).
So to complement the easy installation of Python on MacOS, I propose to develop a script for an easy complete uninstallation of it. And include that script in the .pkg installer.
