Uninstalling Eggs

[PB]

I just installed the Shove module with the monumentally crap
setuptools. Whilst the install succeeded, imports now trigger errors,
so clearly it did not install correctly. Can I simply delete the .egg
file from my lib/python2.3/site-packages/ directory?

Cheers,

Deleting the shove-egg folder is definitely the recommended and
easiest way I know of to "uninstall" an egg. I've used it successfully
before.
