Description

When I use the "-- remove" argument it does not remove all the packages that were installed. It would be good if "umake -r" also removes the redundant packages that it installed.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Analyze the umake codebase to understand the package installation and removal mechanism, identify the missing removal steps for dependencies, and implement a fix to ensure all installed packages are removed when using ' remove'.
