Mac OS auto installer doesn't work after manual uninstallation

[antoninadert]

Hello,

I tried to manually uninstall the MacOS installer, since it put many files all over the place in a chaotic way.
Looking in the terminal in the install code, I identified this folder as the main installation folder: /var/folders/lw/ygk6p9h16x1_2h3ch6f7_rmw0000gp/T/_MEIYPi5Sl/

Extract from the terminal :

That being said, it seems the installer also put files all other the place, like in the main user directory ~/, like ~/.cache for example

I tried to remove all folders related to the installation manually, but it seems I am missing something because now if I try to reinstall, I will run into errors.

I see many potential solutions :

• An official uninstaller ?
• A manual uninstall documentation for the autoinstaller
• Being able to see what the autoinstaller actually does. Today it is quite obfuscated as this is a binary format it seems.

Thanks for your help
