&gt;<i> Le 14/08/2012 10:57, Colin Guthrie a &#233;crit :
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 'Twas brillig, and nicolas vigier at 13/08/12 16:49 did gyre and gimble:
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Maybe we could change task-obsolete to conflict with obsolete packages
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> instead of obsoleting them :
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> task-obsolete is also used to remove packages from the mirror too.
</I>&gt;<i> s/task-obsolete/obsoletes tags in any package/
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> So if
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> we change how it works, then we have to find another user friendly
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> mechanism to remove packages (not necessarily a bad idea tho')
</I>
&gt;<i> Is asking an admin on IRC or a mailing-list user-friendy enough ? 
</I>
Well in the past such requests can go unheeded for a while as happens
from time to time.

&gt;<i>Or a
</I>&gt;<i> wrapper accessible by ssh (as other similar admin tools on BS) taking
</I>&gt;<i> care both of subversion removal and package tree cleanup ?
</I>
That would be much better, but made available to packagers easily to
prevent unnecessary sysadmin overhead.
