`pkgx uninstall` fails if pantry is not downloaded yet

[dosubot]

To address the issue where pkgx uninstall fails due to the pantry not being downloaded, you can precede the uninstall command with pkgx --sync. This command ensures the pantry is updated and any necessary packages are downloaded, thus avoiding the pantry error. Here's how you can integrate this into your workflow:

1. Before attempting to uninstall with pkgx, run:

   pkgx --sync

2. Once the pantry is synced, proceed with your uninstall command as initially intended.

This approach leverages pkgx's functionality to keep the pantry up to date, ensuring smooth package management operations without encountering errors related to missing pantry data.
