and following that was output that looked like
. ado descr outreg
----------------------------------------------------------------------
[17] package outreg from http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/o
<snip>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
[31] package outreg from http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/o
<snip>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
[41] package outreg from http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/o
<snip>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
[54] package outreg from http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/o
<snip>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
[62] package outreg from http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/o

When you have multiple packages installed under the same name, refer to
the packages by their number. Type
. ado uninstall [54]
. ado uninstall [41]
. ado uninstall [31]
. ado uninstall [17]
Note that I uninstalled the packages in backwards order. You can uninstall
them in forward order,
. ado uninstall [17]
but after each, be sure you do an -ado list- to find out the new sequence
number assigned to what is left. Packages are numbered sequentially and so,
what was 31 will now be 30:
. ado uninstall [30]
Now you will have to check again. (41 became 40 after uninstalling 17, and
will become 39 after uninstalling 30.)
