Probably the closest list that there is.

It's not really designed to be uninstalled.  I typically take snapshots
of all the filenames on this system before and after installing these
sorts of tools and compare them so I know what additions have been made,
but that's not going to help you here.  I think your best bet is to look
at the list of files listed in .../package/commands and remove those
by hand.  Also manually check how your svscanboot is being initiated
and "reverse the damage" done by that.  Or just ignore it - if you're
not using the tools, it's not like it's bloatware occupying gigabytes
of disk space.
