Description

Environment
  • Ubuntu 22
Feature Request

When I uninstall Poetry using the script (--uninstall), the cache dir ~/.cache/pypoetry was not removed by default.

Maybe we should provide an option to remove the cache dir, or just remove them with --uninstall option itself.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the installation script's --uninstall path and how it handles ~/.cache/pypoetry. Check whether existing tests cover uninstall behavior. Done means the requested cache-removal behavior or option is implemented consistently and verified for the uninstall flow.
