Uninstalling mullvad does not remove zsh shell completion symlink

[Moulick]

Is it a bug?

• [X] I know this is an issue with the app, and contacting Mullvad support is not relevant.

I have checked if others have reported this already

• [X] I have checked the issue tracker to see if others have reported similar issues.

Current Behavior

The postinstall script in mullvad macos .pkg makes a symlink for zsh and fish shell completion. ln -sf "$INSTALL_DIR/Mullvad VPN.app/Contents/Resources/_mullvad" "$ZSH_COMPLETIONS_DIR/_mullvad" This symlink is not removed when uninstalling the app. This causes errors in compinit compinit:527: no such file or directory: /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions/_mullvad

Expected Behavior

Uninstalling should remove zsh and fish shell completion symlink

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install mullvad on MacOS
2. Uninstall mullvad
3. run rm -f ~/.zcompdump ~/.zcompdump.zwc
4. run compinit

Failure Logs

compinit:527: no such file or directory: /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions/_mullvad

Operating system version

MacOS 14.5

Mullvad VPN app version

Looking at the git history, it's been here since 4 years

Facing same issue. Any workaround to resolve this?

@TheNaman047 Use the brew installation if you can, that will do the cleanup properly. You can see the linked PR above.
