What about literally doing that? If one installs a package foo-0.1.spkg,
then a file
spkg/installed/foo-0.1
appears. It could contain a list of all the files that are installed
by foo-0.1. Then uninstall would delete all those files. The only
problem is when a file is in multiple packages; but that is a problem
in most systems.
