Charley Baker commented on WTR-464:
-----------------------------------
True. Unless anyone has a better idea, this is the way gems work currently,
dependent gems don't get uninstalled. My best fix for this would be document it
on the wiki for people who want to roll back.
This is not a bug, but a request for documentation which you've shown and needs
to go on the wiki.

> Affects Versions: 1.6.7
> Environment: win xp ie7
> Reporter: Alan Baird
> Priority: Major
>
> After uninstalling watir 1.6.7, and installing watir 1.6.6, Watir throws a
> LoadError trying to load watir/ie. I looked at the versions that were
> installed and noticed that commonwatir and firewatir did not get uninstalled
> when Watir::IE was uninstalled. The workaround is to manually uninstall
> commonwatir and firewatir.
