I believe that I have installed virtualenvwrapper incorrectly (the perils of following different tutorials for python setup).

I would like to remove the extension completely from my Mac OSX system but there seems to be no documentation on how to do this.

Does anyone know how to completely reverse the installation? Its wreaking havoc with my attempts to compile python scripts.

pip uninstall virtualenvwrapper

Or

sudo pip uninstall virtualenvwrapper

worked for me.
