+For most Casks, uninstall actions are determined automatically, and an

+The `uninstall` stanza is available for non-`pkg` Casks, and is useful for

+case of using `uninstall` to define procedures for a `pkg`.
 
 Since `pkg` installers can do arbitrary things, different techniques are
 needed to uninstall in each case.  You may need to specify one, or several,
