Description:
Please provide a mechanism to uninstall.

I installed version 1.6.2 of MySQL Utilities using the mysql-utilities-1.6.2.pkg app and then wanted to go back to version 1.5.6.

The 1.5.6 installer refuses to install over version 1.6.2.

Neither the version 1.5.6 installer nor the version 1.6.2 installer provide an uninstall feature.

How to repeat:
Install version 1.5.6 of MySQL Utilities using mysql-utilities-1.5.6.pkg.

Run the version 1.5.6 installer (mysql-utilities-1.5.6.pkg) and try to uninstall -- can't.

Install version 1.6.2 of MySQL Utilities using mysql-utilities-1.6.2.pkg.

Run the version 1.5.6 installer (mysql-utilities-1.5.6.pkg) and try to install -- can't.

Run the version 1.6.2 installer (mysql-utilities-1.6.2.pkg) and try to uninstall -- can't.

Suggested fix:
Add uninstall capabilities to the Mac installers.
