Q:

Removing Saltstack from Mac OSX

I don't remember how I installed saltstack on my mac, so I tried uninstalling it every way possible. I tried brew uninstall saltstack, pip uninstall salt. I attempted to see if salt -h had anything to say to uninstall it, but it didn't work.
Update some system outputs

➤ pip list | grep salt
➤ whereis salt-call
➤ which salt-call
/opt/salt/bin/salt-call
➤ ls -l /opt/salt
total 0
drwxr-xr-x  45 root  wheel   1.5K 24 Aug 13:07 bin/
drwxr-xr-x   8 root  wheel   272B 24 Aug 13:07 include/
drwxr-xr-x  14 root  wheel   476B 24 Aug 13:07 lib/
drwxr-xr-x   8 root  wheel   272B 24 Aug 13:07 openssl/
drwxr-xr-x   3 root  wheel   102B 24 Aug 13:07 share/

I'm guessing I installed it from this link: 

curl -L https://bootstrap.saltstack.com -o install_salt.sh
sudo sh install_salt.sh -P -M

but it doesn't say how to uninstall it based on this method. Anyone know?

A:

/opt/salt/bin/salt-call

It looks like you installed it using .pkg file: https://repo.saltstack.com/osx/
You can verify by running some commands:
❯❯❯❯ pkgutil --pkgs | grep salt
com.saltstack.salt

❯❯❯❯ pkgutil --pkg-info com.saltstack.salt
package-id: com.saltstack.salt
version: 2016.11.3
volume: /
location: /
install-time: 1504874150

List installed files:
❯❯❯❯ pkgutil --files com.saltstack.salt
Library
Library/LaunchDaemons
Library/LaunchDaemons/com.saltstack.salt.api.plist
Library/LaunchDaemons/com.saltstack.salt.master.plist
Library/LaunchDaemons/com.saltstack.salt.minion.plist
Library/LaunchDaemons/com.saltstack.salt.syndic.plist
etc
etc/salt
etc/salt/master.dist
etc/salt/minion.dist
opt
opt/salt
opt/salt/bin
...

Stop services:
❯❯❯❯ sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.saltstack.salt.minion.plist

Do the same for api, master, syndic if they are running.
Remove files first:
❯❯❯❯ cd /

❯❯❯❯ pkgutil --only-files --files com.saltstack.salt | grep -v opt
Library/LaunchDaemons/com.saltstack.salt.api.plist
Library/LaunchDaemons/com.saltstack.salt.master.plist
Library/LaunchDaemons/com.saltstack.salt.minion.plist
Library/LaunchDaemons/com.saltstack.salt.syndic.plist
etc/salt/master.dist
etc/salt/minion.dist

❯❯❯❯ pkgutil --only-files --files com.saltstack.salt | grep -v opt | tr '\n' '\0' | xargs -0 sudo rm -f

then directories:
❯❯❯❯ pkgutil --only-dirs --files com.saltstack.salt | grep -v opt
Library
Library/LaunchDaemons
etc
etc/salt

❯❯❯❯ sudo rm -fr etc/salt

❯❯❯❯ sudo rm -fr opt/salt

And finally, remove the receipt:
❯❯❯❯ sudo pkgutil --forget com.saltstack.salt
Forgot package 'com.saltstack.salt' on '/'.
