Dear developers,  
I want to know how to uninstall a package from the slicer’s python, since I have tried many ways but not work.  
Best wishes,  
Joshua

You can also use `slicer.util.pip_uninstall()` function. You may need to restart Slicer after this if the package was loaded when you tried to uninstall it.

There was a typo - it should be `uninstall`
