Since you can't (yet) install Sage using pip, uninstalling it this way wouldn't work either. If you installed Sage directly as a binary (as you indicate in your question), you just remove the binary (and remove the .sage/ directory as well, perhaps). All the other stuff are just prereqs for Sage and wouldn't harm you to keep them (e.g. gfortran). Sage shouldn't be using "system" Python anyway.

Apparently there is no clean way.

pip freeze | grep sage
pip uninstall sage

do not remove SAGE. Further deleting the SageMath directory won't solve the issue. Only removing through yum or dnf will make the deal. Yet at the cost that this will reset python to the system python and remove gcc, g++ and gfortran. But it is not a big deal after all, to reinstall python scientific stack and the compilers.
