I have been doing a few experiments with cabal packages lately and I wish to uninstall these to return to a cleaner package base. However, there doesn't seem to be a "cabal uninstall" command and reading the documentation at http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/Cabal/index.html does not tell much about how to do that manually.

I think you want 'ghc-pkg list' and 'ghc-pkg unregister'.

If you also want to remove the files then that also has to be done manually at the moment. If any volunteers would like to help us implement tracking of installed files that would be most welcome. Duncan
