After installing the google-hangouts cask, I tried to immediately uninstall via
brew cask uninstall google-hangouts

Which produced this error:

Error: Permission denied - /Library/Application Support/Google/GoogleTalkPlugin.app/Contents/Frameworks/GoogleBreakpad.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Reporter.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj
