Actually, no.  If the module would have been truly uninstalled, the error would 
have been something like:

% r 'use CBOR::Simple:ver<0.1.1>'
===SORRY!=== Error while compiling -e
Could not find CBOR::Simple:ver<0.1.1> in:
    /Users/liz/.raku
    /Users/liz/Github/rakudo/install/share/perl6/site
    /Users/liz/Github/rakudo/install/share/perl6/vendor
    /Users/liz/Github/rakudo/install/share/perl6/core
    CompUnit::Repository::AbsolutePath<2276199768160>
    CompUnit::Repository::NQP<2276123351056>
    CompUnit::Repository::Perl5<2276123351096>

So it looks like the source is gone, but the "short" info might still be there.

Thanks!
