I personally manage bzr and friends through pkgsrc.org, but I've been  
puzzled about properly uninstalling packages myself.  A bit of  
googling found this blog that describes the mechanics:

And there's a rather shoddily packaged command-line tool called pkg- 
remove that seems to do the work.  Make sure you don't specify the  
'.pkg' extension.

	http://macosx.forked.net/p/pkg-remove-0.3.pkg.tgz

Download it and untar it, and then install the resulting pkg.  I'd  
personally use the /bin/pkg-data command directly.  Regardless, it  
always seems to work in test mode unless you run it interactively.

It seemed to work for the few packages I've tried. YMMV.
