(This bug report unfortunately didn't get any response at the time.)

If I've reading this bug report correctly, this was the point of the
matter?  If so, the answer is "use the `~' command to mark obsolete
packages for deletion".

Does this answer your question, or was there something else in this bug
report that needs a response?
